Bertrand Russell Quotes(バートランド・ラッセルの名言・警句)

 

I thought that people would not like the prospect of being fried with their families and their neighbours and every living person that they had heard of. I thought it would only be necessary to make the danger (of the nuclear peril) known and that, when this had been done, men of all parties would unite to restore previous safety. I found that this was a mistake. There is a motive which is stronger than self-preservation : it is the desire to get the better of the other fellow.
