Right time, right place

Sir: Paul Johnson’s reflections on space, time and God (And Another Thing, 28 April) are nicely summed up in the saying ‘Time and space are God’s way of stopping everything from happening all at once and all in the same place’. I don’t know who is the author of this gem; to me it sounds a bit like Ronald Knox.
