Two quotes from Bertrand Russell, who was born today, quite a while ago (1872):


To fear love is to fear life, and those who fear life are already three parts dead.

The good life is one inspired by love and guided by knowledge.

Richard P. Feynman contributed so much to our world and yet is rarely praised, so I'm giving him a shout out here, THANKS R.P. FEYNMAN for every and all you gave, so freely, to our world.
