You must believe that you can help bring about a better world. A good society is produced only by good individuals, just as truly as a majority in a presidential election is produced by the votes of single electors (Bertrand Russell Quotes)
My whole religion is this: do every duty, and expect no reward for it, either here or hereafter (Bertrand Russell Quotes)

More important than the curriculum is the question of the methods of teaching and the spirit in which the teaching is given (Bertrand Russell Quotes)
I’ve always thought respectable people scoundrels, and I look anxiously at my face every morning for signs of my becoming a scoundrel (Bertrand Russell Quotes)
This has been my life. I have found it worth living, and would gladly live it again if the second chance were offered me (Bertrand Russell Quotes)
Drunkeness is temporary suicide: the happiness that it brings is merely negative, a momentary cessation of unhappiness (Bertrand Russell Quotes)
Change is scientific; progress is ethical; change is indubitable, whereas progress is a matter of controversy (Bertrand Russell Quotes)
Cruelty is, in theory, a perfectly adequate ground for divorce, but it may be interpreted so as to become absurd (Bertrand Russell Quotes)
The human race may well become extinct before the end of the century. Speaking as a mathematician, I should say the odds are about three to one against survival (Bertrand Russell Quotes)
Continuity of purpose is one of the most essential ingredients of happiness in the long run, and for most men that comes chiefly through their work (Bertrand Russell Quotes)
Our individual life is brief, and perhaps the whole life of mankind will be brief if measured in astronomical scale (Bertrand Russell Quotes)
The examination system, and the fact that instruction is treated mainly as a training for a livelihood, leads the young to regard knowledge from a purely utilitarian point of view as the road to money, not as the gateway to wisdom (Bertrand Russell Quotes)
The scientific attitude of mind involves a sweeping away of all other desires in the interest of the desire to know (Bertrand Russell Quotes)
I think it would be just to say the most essential characteristic of mind is memory, using this word in its broadest sense to include every influence of past experience on present reactions (Bertrand Russell Quotes)
Cruel men believe in a cruel God and use their belief to excuse their cruelty. Only kindly men believe in a kindly God, and they would be kindly in any case (Bertrand Russell Quotes)
I am myself a dissenter from all known religions, and I hope that every kind of religious belief will die out (Bertrand Russell Quotes)
There is as much difference between a collection of mentally free citizens and a community molded by modern methods of propaganda as there is between a heap of raw materials and a battleship (Bertrand Russell Quotes)

I have come to realize that an early symptom of approaching mental illness is the belief that one’s work is terribly important. If you consider your work very important you should take a day off (Bertrand Russell Quotes)
The happiness that is genuinely satisfying is accompanied by the fullest exercise of our faculties and the fullest realization of the world in which we live (Bertrand Russell Quotes)
Dogma demands authority, rather than intelligent thought, as the source of opinion; it requires persecution of heretics and hostility to unbelievers; it asks of its disciples that they should inhibit natural kindliness in favor of systematic hatred (Bertrand Russell Quotes)
Uncertainty in the pressure of vivid hopes and fears is painful, but must be endured if we wish to live without the support of comforting fairy tales (Bertrand Russell Quotes)
There is no greater reason for children to honour parents than for parents to honour children except, that while the children are young, the parents are stronger than children (Bertrand Russell Quotes)
