伯特兰·阿瑟·威廉·罗素 (Bertrand Arthur William Russell), 英国哲学家、数学家、逻辑学家、历史学家、文学家, 1950年诺贝尔文学奖获得者, 世界和平运动的倡导者和组织者, 在许多领域都颇有建树。 1959年,BBC采访了时年87岁的罗素, 在采访的最后,他们提了这样一个问题: “假如这段录像如同死海古卷一样在一千年以后被人发现,你想对他们那一代人说些什么?” (suppose to that,russel,this film would to be looked at by our descendants.like a dead see scroll in athousand of years time,what would you think it's worth telling future generations about the life you've lived and the lessons you've learned from it? ) 罗素回答: “我想要讲两点,一关于智慧,二关乎道德。” (“I should like to say two things.one intellectual and one moral.”) |
