 Bertrand Russell Quotes 366 |
You ( = W. W. Norton) will have seen that my brother died suddenly in Marseilles. I inherit from him a title, but not a penny of money, as he was bankrupt. A title is a great nuisance to me, and I am at a loss what to do, but at any rate I do not wish it employed in connection with any of my literary work. ... but I am sure I can rely upon you not to make use of my title in the way of publicity.
