Everyone here does.

I just have this image of him as a solitary, lone scholar by candlelight--Probably not at all accurate. But not the most "approachable" man--Not for any meanness of character, but simply just someone removed from others in a way. I suppose I am just coloring my image of the Professor with the beautiful shades of his works, making him an almost real life Gandalf type figure.
From what I've heard it was the opposite - he was always cheerful and "approachable".
