But death leaves room for an equally talented and intelligent human being to take their place. There is no real net loss from death other than the specific individual.
Even if the open windows of science at first make us shiver after the cozy indoor warmth of traditional humanizing myths, in the end the fresh air brings vigor, and the great spaces have a splendor of their own - Bertrand Russell
