Bertrand Russell Quotes:

Ocupation: Philosopher

Life: May 18, 1872 - February 2, 1970

Birthday: May 18

Death: February 2

Man is the product of causes which had no prevision of the end they were achieving; his origin, his growth, his hopes and fears, his loves and beliefs, are but the outcome of accidental collocations of atoms; no fire, no heroism, no intensity of though and feeling, can preserve an individual life beyond the grave.
