Bertrand Russell Survival Quotations

To expect a personality to survive the disintegration of the brain is like expecting a cricket club to survive when all of its members are dead.

Without civic morality communities perish; without personal morality their survival has no value.

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.
