A quotation from Bertrand Russell

It is amazing how much both happiness and efficiency can be increased by the cultivation of an orderly mind, which thinks about a matter adequately at the right time rather than inadequately at all times.

Bertrand Russell (1872-1970) English mathematician and philosopher
Conquest of Happiness, Part 1, ch. 5 “Fatigue” (1930)

@sz_duras In #LTI, The Language of the Third Reich, Victor #Klemperer shows how everyday language, official #discourse, and small habits of #thought insidiously transform the perception of #reality. #Fascism, according to him, does not impose itself solely through #violence or #terror, but through the slow permeation of minds, the trivialization of #ideology in #language, and the internalization of new norms, until the #exception becomes the #rule.

I am not afraid of tomorrow, for I have seen yesterday and I love today. #thought

I am always doing that which I cannot do, in order that I may learn how to do it. #thought
