Quote by Bertrand Russell

There is no reason to suppose that the world had a beginning at all. The idea that things must have a beginning is really due to the poverty of our thoughts.

There is no reason to suppose that the world had a beginning

Summary

This quote suggests that assuming the world had a definitive beginning is an indication of our limited thinking. It challenges the notion that everything must have a clear starting point, implying that our perception of beginnings is shaped by our own intellectual limitations. Instead, it implies a possibility of the world existing infinitely, questioning the commonly held belief in a singular origin.

There was a small wooden gazebo built out over the water; Isabelle was sitting in it, staring out across the lake. She looked like a princess in a fairy tale, waiting at the top of her tower for someone to ride up and rescue her. Not that traditional princess behavior was like Isabelle at all. Isabelle with her whip and boots and knives would chop anyone who tried to pen her up in a tower into pieces, build a bridge out of the remains, and walk carelessly to freedom, her hair looking fabulous the entire time.
