For all intents and purposes out at the CIA, she's like a leper ... she's radioactive.

Teacher is not a leper

The Almighty has His own purposes

For all intents and purposes, I'm a woman.

The same thing at the CIA and the FBI,

If your Soviet neighbor is trying to set fire to your house, you can't be worrying about the Arab down the block. If suddenly it's the Arab in your backyard , you can't be worrying about the People's Republic of China and if one day the ChiComs show up at your front door with an eviction notice in one hand and a Molotov cocktail in the other, then the last thing you're going do is look over his shoulder for a walking corpse.
