Bertrand Russell
A process which led from the amoeba to man appeared to philosophers to be obviously progress -- though whether the amoeba would agree with this opinion is not known.
A sense of duty is useful in work, but offensive in personal relations. People wish to be liked, not be endured with patient resignation.
A stupid man's report of what a clever man says can never be accurate, because he unconciously translates what he hears into something he can understand.
All exact science is dominated by the idea of approximation.
All movements go too far.
<< Anna Russell Bayard Rustin >>
