QQC Newton

Quote
"Nature to him was an open book, whose letters he could read without effort"
"Both men feared for Newton's sanity. They responded with careful concern and wise humanity, and the crisis passed"

Question
Why was Halley so mad about Newton not speaking out about? Why did her expect him to say when he asked him about the ellipse? I wonder if he had some kind of mental illness? Or why didn't he like to speak out? I wonder what it would have been to be in his brain?

Comment
This article was about Newton and his life. At times alot of his friends worried about because he was acting very uncaring and so oblivious to his work.
