In personal habits Pavlov was extremely punctual, never missing an appointment, it was claimed, and arriving on time in the laboratory even when there was revolutionary activity on the streets. To a collaborator, who explained his 10-minute delay as a result of the shooting, Pavlov exclaimed, "What difference does a revolution make when you have experiments to do in the laboratory!" He was a bold, vehement nonconformist both in science and in his personal life; he fiercely took up the cudgel for what he believed regardless of the force of his opposition. Although Pavlov held to scientific agnosticism, he considered true religion beneficial; he said that he envied no one anything except his wife her devout religious faith.
