Quotations from Bertrand Russell:
Every man, wherever he goes, is encompassed by a cloud of comforting convictions, which move with him like flies on a summer day.
Bertrand Russell, (1872 - 1970) British philosopher, logician & essayist
There is much pleasure to be gained from useless knowledge.
The fact that an opinion has been widely held is no evidence whatever that it is not utterly absurd; indeed in view of the silliness of the majority of mankind, a widespread belief is more likely to be foolish than sensible.
Bertrand Russell, (1872 - 1970) British philosopher, logician & essayist
