Economist Oskar Morgenstern recounts that toward the end of his life Einstein confided that his "own work no longer meant much, that he came to the Institute merely ... to have the privilege of walking home with Gödel"
One of the reason Einstein and Gödel spent a lot of time together was that he did not care how famous Einstein was, and was not afraid to disagree. He was also not shy about sharing his own work with Einstein.
