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

Bertrand Russell Quotes 366

We are human beings ; therefore human beings are the purpose of creation. We are Americans; therefore America is God's own country. We are white; and therefore God cursed Ham and his descendants who were black. ... If we could feel genuinely that we are the equals of our neighbours, neither their betters nor their inferiors, perhaps , life would become less of a battle, and we would need less of religion's intoxicating myths to give us courage.
