[Alexander North] Whitehead is supposed to have said of [Bertrand] Russell: "Bertie thinks me muddleheaded and I think Bertie simple-minded.”. (Randall Jarrell)
The members of the Vienna Circle (Moritz Schlick, Rudolf Carnap, Philipp Frank, Hans Hahn, Herbert Feigl, Fritz Waismann, Kurt Godel, Otto Neurath and others) are working out a ‘Logical Empiricism'. Following Ernst Mach and Poincaré, but above all Russell and Wittgenstein, all the sciences are treated uniformly. Carnap's Logischer Aufbau der Welt (1928) shows in which direction future systematic work will move. Wittgenstein's Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus (1921) clarified, among other things, the position of logic and mathematics; besides the statements that make additions to what is meaningful, there are the ‘tautologies' that show us which transformations are possible within language. By its syntax the language of science excludes anything that is meaningless from the very beginning. View quote
Otto Neurath
There's all kinds of depictions of black men. You have the Denzel Washingtons and the Will Smiths; that's wonderful, but that doesn't represent everyone. There's a Russell Crowe... well, you know, there's a black Russell Crowe. View quote
Michael Jai White
I'm not Russell Crowe. I'm not going to do a period piece. View quote

The first thing I do each morning is get out of bed and give my dog, Audrey, a hug. She's a Jack Russell. I think having an animal is a wonderful thing, particularly dogs. They are great levelers, there's no nonsense with them, and they just want simple affection. View quote

Purely mathematical symbols have no meaning by themselves; it is the privilege of pure mathematicians, to quote Bertrand Russell, not to know what they are talking about. ...It is the physicist, and not the mathematician, who must know what he is talking about. View quote
Willem de Sitter
The object of this paper is to give a satisfactory account of the Foundations of Mathematics in accordance with the general method of Frege, Whitehead and Russell. Following these authorities, I hold that mathematics is part of logic, and so belong to what may be called the logical school as opposed to the formalist and intuitionist schools. I have therefore taken Principia Mathematica as a basis for discussion and ammendment; and believe myself to have discovered how, by using the work of Mr Ludwig Wittgenstein, it can be rendered free from the serious objections which have caused its rejection by the majority of German authorities, who have deserted altogether its line of approach.

Frank P. Ramsey
[A]lthough my attempted reconstruction of the view of Whitehead and Russell overcomes, I think, many of the difficulties, it is impossible to regard it as altogether satisfactory. View quote

For clothes, I like Dover Street Market and Acne. For vintage, I go to Mint just off Seven Dials. For shoes, it's Church's and Russell & Bromley. View quote
Matt Smith
I worked with people I admire; Josh Lucas, who I'd worked with many many years ago on a pilot called The Class of 61 and Kurt Russell, and so there were a variety of different people that I enjoyed working with. (Andre Braugher)
David O. Russell is probably my favorite filmmaker. He's not only a great director, but he's also a great writer. View quote

I'd like a pop-up magazine with 45 articles on Russell Crowe. I'm like a teenager. I'd have 'Teen Beat' if I could, for grown-ups. View quote
Caroline Rhea
I'm going to try and model myself after Kurt Russell and Jodie Foster. View quote
Haley Joel Osment
My earliest influence was Quincy Jones. I thought 'The Wiz' soundtrack was the most amazing thing I'd ever heard. It was my first record and you had Michael Jackson, Ted Ross, Nipsey Russell and Diana Ross on it. I even took it to show and tell in third grade! View quote
Jill Scott
You can't believe Russell Crowe is the same actor who won an Oscar one year ago for Gladiator. View quote
Joel Siegel
I read books more than I go out. As a matter of fact, I get a little concerned about some of my anti-social habits. I will choose a night with Somerset Maugham or Russell Banks over a crowded bar any day. View quote
Julie Bowen
Like Russell, I enjoy the fact that when I'm playing solo, if I want to do something completely spontaneous, I don't have to worry about how I'm going to cue the other musicians, or if it's something that's rehearsed. (Benny Green)
I'm glad you asked that question, because of any musical situation I've been in, the communication feels great here with Russell. He really pays close attention to what I'm doing because he cares. View quote
Benny Green
You know, there're no rules between Russell and I. We don't want to have to have to talk too much, because it's really precious, really special to play music. View quote
Benny Green

Michael Eric Dyson
Let's face it: Russell Crowe is fat and no one ever talks about it. View quote
