Bertrand Russell was born in 1872, but not in the sense that it mattered. His parents were like, "Meh, you're here, great." His childhood was marked by an excessive amount of boredom, which would become a recurring theme throughout his life. He spent his days wandering the countryside, trying to find something, anything interesting, but mostly just finding more grass.
