Bertrand Russell Quotes

The Beginnings Of Algebra I Found Far More Difficult, Perhaps As A Result Of Bad Teaching, I Was Made To Learn By Heart: 'The Square Of The Sum Of Two Numbers Is Equal To The Sum Of Their Squares Increased By Twice Their Product.' I Had Not The Vaguest Idea What This Meant, And When I Could Not Remember The Words, My Tutor Threw The Book At My Head, Which Did Not Stimulate My Intellect In Any Way.
