Bertrand Russell

"Men who are unhappy, like men who sleep badly, are always proud of the fact."

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

"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."

"The greatest challenge to any thinker is stating the problem in a way that will allow a solution."

"A hallucination is a fact, not an error; what is erroneous is a judgment based upon it."

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

"Man is a credulous animal, and must believe something; in the absence of good ground for belief, he will be satisfied with bad ones."

NOTE TO SELF: bunu düşün. --> "The law of casuality, I believe, like much that passes muster among philosophers, is a relic of a bygone age, surviving, like the monarchy, only because it is erroneously supposed to do no harm."
