I går bestilte jeg en t-shirt med disse citater på ryggen.

"Philosophy is a battle against the bewitchment of our intelligence by means of our language." -Ludwig Wittgenstein, Philosophical Investigations (1953), § 109.

"Generally speaking, the errors in religion are dangerous; those in philosophy only ridiculous." -David Hume, A Treatise of Human Nature (1739-40), Of The Understanding, Part 4 Of the sceptical and other systems of philosophy, Sect. 7 Conclusion of this book

"Most people would die sooner than think — in fact they do so." -Bertrand Russell, The ABC of Relativity (1925), p. 166.

"Do not fear to be eccentric in opinion, for every opinion now accepted was once eccentric." -Bertrand Russell, Commandment 7 of "A Liberal Decalogue", from "The Best Answer to Fanaticism: Liberalism," The New York Times (1951-12-16); later printed in The Autobiography of Bertrand Russell (1969), vol. 3: 1944-1967, pp. 71-2.
