Famous quotes by Bertrand Russell:

"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."

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

"War does not determine who is right - only who is left."

"Extreme hopes are born from extreme misery."

"The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves, but wiser people so full of doubts."

"Freedom in general may be defined as the absence of obstacles to the realization of desires"

"Envy consists in seeing things never in themselves, but only in their relations. If you desire glory, you may envy Napoleon, but Napoleon envied Caesar, Caesar envied Alexander, and Alexander, I daresay, envied Hercules, who never existed."

"Religion is something left over from the infancy of our intelligence, it will fade away as we adopt reason and science as our guidelines."

"To conquer fear is the beginning of wisdom."

"Of all forms of caution, caution in love is perhaps the most fatal to true happiness."

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

"The trouble with the world is that the stupid are cocksure and the intelligent are full of doubt."

"Contempt for happiness is usually contempt for other people's happiness, and is an elegant disguise for hatred of the human race."

"In all affairs it's a healthy thing now and then to hang a question mark on the things you have long taken for granted."

"It seems to be the fate of idealists to obtain what they have struggled for in a form which destroys their ideals."

"One of the symptoms of an approaching nervous breakdown is the belief that one's work is terribly important."

"Much that passes as idealism is disguised hatred or disguised love of power."

"Marriage is for women the commonest mode of livelihood, and the total amount of undesired sex endured by women is probably greater in marriage than in prostitution."

"Man needs, for his happiness, not only the enjoyment of this or that, but hope and enterprise and change."
