I have lived in the pursuit of a vision, both personal and social. Personal: to care for what is noble, for what is beautiful, for what is gentle; to allow moments of insight to give wisdom at more mundane times. Social: to see in imagination the society that is to be created, where individuals grow freely, and where hate and greed and envy die because there is nothing to nourish them. These things I believe, and the world, for all its horrors, has left me unshaken. -Bertrand Russell The Autobiography of Bertrand Russell (1967–1969) Postscript Photograph: Bertrand Russell 1872-1970 philosopher and campaigner for peace lived here in flat no.34 1911-1916
