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


ラッセル関係電子書籍一覧
'After reading your recent book, Bertrand Russell Speaks His Mind, I am sorry to confess that I am still uncertain what your attitude toward life is. You have taken into consideration the uncertain nature of all things, yet you seem to live life with purpose. ...'

Dear Mr Barczak, (February 15, 1963)
'Purpose' is entirely an inner quality which in no way depends upon metaphysical views about causality.
Passionate concern for some degree of understanding of the world outside oneself and compassionate interest in the circumstances of other human beings provide sufficient activity for many lifetimes. Whether this activity is seen to be trivial or considered important is a temperamental accident. I think somethong may be said for both attitude, although I act upon the latter one.
Yours sincerely
Bertrand Russell
