"One of the symptoms of an approaching nervous breakdown is the belief that one's work is terribly important." - Bertrand Russell
Thanks to Paul Toth for making that quote his facebook status update. It made me laugh at myself.
More Russell:
Good stuff.
Funny delivery that guy has to his phrases. I'd have liked the woman to have asked him some questions about the sociological role of religion as opposed to just religion's role on individuals. But obviously that's just an excerpt from a longer conversation.
ReplyDeleteRussell's an interesting character. A comic book called 'Logicomix' was written about him and his philosophy a little while ago. I recommend it.
