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


The Protestant whose moral feelings are strong usurps the ethical functions of the priest, and acquires a quasi-governmental attitude towards other people's virtues and vices, especially the latter :
Ye've naught to do but mark and tell
Your neighbours' faults and folly.

This is not anarchy; it is democracy.
(Namely, Envy is the basis of democracy. )
