“It seems to me now that mathematics is capable of an artistic excellence as great as that of any music, perhaps greater; not because the pleasure it gives (although very pure) is comparable, either in intensity or in the number of people who feel it, to that of music, but because it gives in absolute perfection that combination, characteristic of great art, of godlike freedom, with the sense of inevitable destiny; because, in fact, it constructs an ideal world where everything is perfect and yet true.” PeopleWorldGivingFeelsArtFactsSeemsPerfectPleasureNumbersDestinyGreaterPureCapableIdealsPerfectionAbsolutesMathematicsExcellenceArtisticInevitableCombinationCharacteristicsIntensityConstructsGreat ArtGodlikeIdeal WorldNumbers And MathGreat MathMath And Music Book:The Autobiography of Bertrand Russell Source: The Autobiography of Bertrand Russell

“To affirm life is to deepen, to make more inward, and to exalt the will-to-life. At the same time the man who has become a thinking being feels a compulsion to give every will-to-live the same reverence for life that he gives to his own. He experiences that other life as his own. He accepts as being good: to preserve life, to raise to its highest value life which is capable of development; and as being evil: to destroy life, to injure life, to repress life which is capable of development. This is the absolute, fundamental principle of the moral, and it is a necessity of thought.” ThinkingMenGivingFeelsLife IsValuesEvilAnimalAcceptingMoralPrinciplesHe ManDevelopmentHighestCapableAbsolutesPhilosophicalRaisesFundamentalsBe GoodPreservesReverenceInwardCompulsionFundamental PrinciplesReverence For LifeWill To Live Author:Albert Schweitzer

“The mere word freedom is the only one that still excites me. I deem it capable of indefinitely sustaining the old human fanaticism. It doubtless satisfies my only legitimate aspiration. Among all the many misfortunes to which we are heir, it is only fair to admit that we are allowed the greatest degree of freedom of thought. It is up to us not to misuse it. To reduce the imagination to a state of slavery-even though it would mean the elimination of what is commonly called happiness-is to betray all sense of absolute justice within oneself.” HumansMeanStillsStatesImaginationJusticeDegreesCapableFairsAbsolutesSlaveryMereOneselfAspirationMisfortunesBetrayFanaticismFreedom Of ThoughtHeirsEliminationSustainingMisuse Author:Andre Breton
