Science is what you know, philosophy is what you don't know - Bertrand Russell

"There are two motives for reading a book; one, that you enjoy it; the other, that you can boast about it."

"There lies before us, if we choose, continual progress in happiness, knowledge and wisdom. Shall we instead choose death, because we cannot forget our quarrels? I appeal as a human being to human beings; remember your humanity, and forget the rest."

"Those who have never known the deep intimacy and the intense companionship of mutual love have missed the best thing that life has to give."

"To fear love is to fear life, and those who fear life are already 3-parts dead."

"The good life is one inspired by love and guided by knowledge."
