Bertrand Russell Zitate

There is no need to worry about mere size. We do not necessarily respect a fat man more than a thin man. Sir Isaac Newton was very much smaller than a hippopotamus, but we do not on that account value him less.

Es ist nicht nötig, sich um die Größe zu kümmern. Wir respektieren einen dicken Mann nicht unbedingt mehr als einen dünnen Mann. Sir Isaac Newton war viel kleiner als ein Nilpferd, aber wir schätzen ihn deshalb nicht weniger ein.

But my father was also the one who told me I needed to clean up my mouth or I'd never find a man. What's very important to him is manners. Show up on time. Always send thank-you letters. He is one of the more thoughtful humans I've ever met. He's a great man and a very good dad.
