More From Bertrand Russell
- "Religion is something left over from the infancy of our intelligence, it will fade away as we adopt reason and science as our guidelines."
- "Almost everything that distinguishes the modern world from earlier centuries is attributable to science, which achieved its most spectacular triumphs in the seventeenth century."
- "There is no need to worry about mere size. We do not necessarily respect a fat man more than a thin man. Sir Isaac Newton was very much smaller than a hippopotamus, but we do not on that account value him less."
