Science of all things
50
“The value of philosophy is ironically sought through all the accusations leveled against it. These include its impracticality, lack of tangibleness, and preoccupation with the complex"
According to Bernard Russell
51
The true value and relevance of philosophy resides in its
ambiguity and uncertainty
52
is an indication that philosophy should not overestimate itself to the point where answers become more essential than questions
Ambiguity

permits the crucial attitude of being provisional, of being able to continually ruminate and so be in motion
Uncertainty
54
''The significance of philosophy then, is to recognize that the answer is not yet complete."
Bernard Russell

56
✔Philosophy is not an activity that is left to either chance or pure faith. Philosophizing is an activity without help other than itself. It is done only by the use of pure reason. By maintaining this, philosophy has remained independent and pure, never a discipline that is subsumed within a dogma or belief under what it aims to and is maintained by such a vision.
Science of all things through its ultimate causes acquired through the use of natural reasons
