| 58030 | "I cannot agree with the philosophy of any of these writers, but I am afraid that I would need an essay on each in any way adequately to discuss either this or their literature." |
| 58031 | "I did not answer your question about literature because I had nothing interesting to say about it. I admire Camus and Gide, and I admire Sartre as a playwrite [sic] but not as a philosopher. Literature has at times been of very great importance. The great Russian novelists, for example, prepared the way for the overthrow of the Czarist regime. It is impossible to know at present whether any writer has any importance, since we do not know whether there will be any readers or other human beings ten years hence." |
