I don’t care for the applause one gets by saying what others are thinking; I want actually to change people’s thoughts. Power over people’s minds is the main personal desire of my life; and this sort of power is not acquired by saying popular things. Bertrand Russell, letter to Lucy Martin Donnelly, February 10, 1916
