Bertrand Russell
  • Patriots always talk of dying for their country and never of killing for their country.

  • To conquer fear is the beginning of wisdom.

  • Fear is the main source of superstition, and one of the main sources of cruelty. To conquer fear is the beginning of wisdom.

  • Both in thought and in feeling, even though time be real, to realise the unimportance of time is the gate of wisdom.

  • Love is something far more than desire for sexual intercourse it is the principal means of escape from the loneliness which afflicts most men and women throughout the greater part of their lives.
