Bio
Three passions have governed my life:
the longings for love, the search for knowledge,
and unbearable pity for the suffering of mankind.

Love brings ecstasy and relieves loneliness.
In the union of love I have seen
in a mystic miniature the prefiguring vision
of the heavens that saints and poets have imagined.

With equal passion I have sought knowledge.
I have wished to understand the hearts of men.
I have wished to know why the stars shine.

Love and knowledge led upwards to the heavens,
but always pity brought me back to earth;
cries of pain reverberated in my heart
of children in famine, of victims tortured
and of old people left helpless.
I long to alleviate the evil, but I cannot,
and I too suffer.

This is my life; I find it worth living.
Bertrand Russell



"I cannot live without books."
Thomas Jefferson
