Quote DB :: Authors :: Bertrand Russell :: View Quote View Quote "A life without adventure is likely to be unsatisfying, but a life in which adventure is allowed to take whatever form it will is sure to be short." - Copy to Clipboard   --  Bertrand Russell Listed in: Risk Add Quote To Your Quote List   Rating: 4.86  Rate Quote 7 votes submitted Your Name: Friend's Email: Sponsored Links Top 5 quotes from Bertrand Russell "We are faced with the paradoxical fact that education has become one of the chief obstacles to intelligence and freedom of thought." "War does not determine who is right - only who is left." "The degree of one's emotions varies inversely with one's knowledge of the facts: the less you know the hotter you get." "Love is, above all, the gift of oneself." "What a man believes upon grossly insufficient evidence is an index into his desires -- desires of which he himself is often unconscious. If a man is offered a fact which goes against his instincts, he will scrutinize it closely, and unless the evidence is overwhelming, he will refuse to believe it. If, on the other hand, he is offered something which affords a reason for acting in accordance to his instincts, he will accept it even on the slightest evidence. The origin of myths is explained in this way." Top 5 quotes from Risk "When in doubt, do it." "We should not criticise those who trip by taking a more difficult than usual step." "Risk is what separates the good part of life from the tedium." "“Take a chance! All life is a chance. The man who goes farthest is generally the one who is willing to do and dare." "Accept the challenges so that you can feel the exhilaration of victory."
