John Slater:
... we can hardly conceive of anyone else having thought
of [the Dirac equation]. It shows the peculiar power of
the sort of intuitive genius which he has possessed more
than perhaps any of the other scientists of the period.

Sets up system of 4 equations defining a line.
In Klein (1870) co-ordinates, this has a general quadratic
form.
