“Hume's philosophy represents the bankruptcy of 18th century reasonableness... It was inevitable that such a self-refutation of rationality should be followed by a great outburst of irrational faith. Rousseau was mad but influential; Hume was sane but had no followers.”
— Bertrand Russell 1872 – 1970 CE
“20th century Voltaire”
from History of Western Philosophy
