Bertrand Russell
“We ought to make the best we can of the world, and if it is not so good as we wish, after all it will still be better than what these others have made of it in all these ages. A good world needs knowledge, kindliness, and courage; it does not need a regretful hankering after the past or a fettering of the free intelligence by the words uttered long ago by ignorant men. It needs a fearless outlook and a free intelligence. It needs hope for the future, not looking back all the time toward a past that is dead, which we trust will be far surpassed by the future that our intelligence can create.”
Bertrand Russell, Why I Am Not a Christian

Virginia Woolf
“I have a deeply hidden and inarticulate desire for something beyond the daily life.”
Virginia Woolf, Moments of Being: A Collection of Autobiographical Writing

Virginia Woolf
“How many times have people used a pen or paintbrush because they couldn’t pull the trigger?”
Virginia Woolf

Bertrand Russell
“One should as a rule respect public opinion in so far as is necessary to avoid starvation and to keep out of
prison, but anything that goes beyond this is voluntary submission to an unnecessary tyranny, and is likely to interfere with happiness in all kinds of ways.”
Bertrand Russell, The Conquest of Happiness

“But nothing makes a room feel emptier than wanting someone in it.”
