More From Bertrand Russell

The term "self" seems a suitable one for the unconscious substrate whose actual exponent in consciousness is the ego. the ego stands to the self as the moved to the mover, or as object to subject, because the determining factors that radiate outward from the self surround the ego on all sides and are therefore supraordinate to it. the self, like the unconscious, as an a priori existent out of which the ego evolves. it is, so to speak, an unconscious prefiguration of the ego. it is not i who create myself; rather, i happen to myself.

All that is good in our history is gathered in libraries. at this moment, plato is down there at the library waiting for us. so is aristotle. spinoza is there and so is kats. shelly and byron adn sam johnson are there waiting to tell us their magnificent stories. all you have to do is walk in the library door and the great company open their arms to you. they are so happy to see you that they come out with you into the street and to your home. and they do what hardly any friend will-- they are silent when you wish to think.

Hereditary monarchy offers numerous advantages for america. it is the only form of government able to unify a heterogeneous people. thanks to centuries of dynastic marriage, the family tree of every royal house is an ethnic grab bag with something for everybody. we need this badly; america is the only country in the world where you can suffer culture shock without leaving home. we can't go on much longer depending upon disasters like pearl harbor and the iranian hostage-taking to "bring us together.
