"Russell respected intellect—and male intellect at that—above all things, as I explain in my book. He furthered the interests of any of his pupils whose minds he thought important, such as Nicod, Wittgenstein." "Why does Constance Malleson not publish her letters, or has Russell embargoed those, too? What fun for him to prevent various people ever knowing what they said about each other to him and he about them. Almost as bad as Nixon and the White House tapes."
