 Bertrand Russell Quotes 366 |
No man need fear that by making himself rational he will make his life dull. On the contrary, since rationality consists in the main of internal harmony, the man who achieves it is freer in his contemplation of the world and in the use of his energies to achieve external purposes than is the man who is perpetually hampered by inward conflicts.

* a brief comment
People who only talk about logic are not liked. However, people who ignore logic and are driven by emotion are also dangerous and unwatchable. Both emotion and logic need to be respected, and the right balance between them is important. That said, it is easier said than done.
