>From the Collected Works, Volume 4:

Letter to Bernays 30 October 1958 --

"As to Wittgenstein's book on the foundations
of mathematics, I also read parts of it.  It seemed
to me at the time that the benefit created by it may be
mainly that it shows the falsity of the assertions
set forth in it.  At least that was true of the passages
that I read."
