'
Letters of Note' has, unsurprisingly, a wonderful collection of, well, letters of note. Including this fabulous one from Einstein to philosopher Erik Gutkind (after reading his book, 'Choose Life: The Biblical Call to Revolt'), which includes the lovely paragraph:
"Still, without Brouwer’s suggestion I would never have gotten myself to
engage intensively with your book because it is written in a language
inaccessible to me. The word God is for me nothing more than the
expression and product of human weakness, the Bible a collection of
honorable, but still purely primitive, legends which are nevertheless
pretty childish."
