"My own view would be that philosophy consists of speculations about
matters where exact knowledge is not yet possible."
... "Well, roughly, you'd say science is what we know and philosophy
what we don't know."
[...]
"But there's another use [of philosophy] that I think is equally
important, which is to show that there are things which we thought we
knew and we don't know. On the other hand, philosophy is to keep us
thinking about things that we may come to know, and on the other hand
to keep us modestly aware of how much that seems like knowledge isn't
knowledge."
[on the value of philosophy in the present world]
"And that understanding of the world, which to my mind is the
underlying purpose that every philosopher should have, is a very long
and difficult business abut which we ought not to be dogmatic."
[on religion]
"I've observed that the belief in the goodness of God is inversely
proportional to the evidence."
[...]
"When there's no evidence for it at all, peopele believe it, and when
things are going well and you might believe it, they don't. So I think
that if people solve their social problems religion will die out."
[on fanaticism]
"It's partly that it [fanaticism] gives you a cosy feeling of co-operation. A fanatical group all together have a comfortable feeling that they're all friends with one another. They are all very much excited about the same thing." ( )
