    The short article is mainly based on the Russian biography of the probabilist Andrei A. Markov (1856--1922) of 1987 by \textit{S. Ya. Grodzenskiĭ} (see Zbl 0626.01032). It describes Markov's political activism against religious orthodoxy and anti-Semitism in Russia. The title of the article is borrowed from a quotation by Albert Einstein, coined on the Jewish emigrant from Nazi Germany and statistician Emil Julius Gumbel.
