In a democracy it is necessary that people should learn to endure having their sentiments outraged.
Bertrand RussellThere was, I think, never any reason to believe in any innate superiority of the male, except his superior muscle.
Bertrand RussellWhat makes a free thinker is not his beliefs, but the way in which he holds them. If he holds them because his elders told him they were true when he was young, or if he holds them because if he did not he would be unhappy, his thought is not free; but if he holds them because, after careful thought, he finds a balance in their favor, then his thought is free, however odd his conclusions may seem.
