THE attempt to conceive imaginatively a better ordering of human society than the destructive and cruel chaos in which mankind has hitherto existed is by no means modern: it is at least as old as Plato, whose "Republic" set the model for the Utopias of subsequent philosophers. Whoever contemplates the world in the light of an ideal - whether what he seeks be intellect, or art, or love, or simple happiness, or all together - must feel a great sorrow in the evils that men needlessly allow to continue, and - if he be a man of force and vital energy - an urgent desire to lead men. | feedboo is Proposed Roads to Freedom Russell Bertrand Published 1918 Categorie s Non-Fiction Philosophy Social science Political science Source Project Gutenberg 1 About Russell Bertrand Arthur William Russell 3rd Earl Russell OM FRS 18 May 1872 - 2 February 1970 was a British philosopher logician mathematician historian religious sceptic social reformer socialist and pacifist.
