Text Quotes
When you are philosophizing you have to descend into primeval chaos and feel at home there (Ludwig Wittgenstein Quotes)
We are asleep. Our Life is a dream. But we wake up sometimes, just enough to know that we are dreaming (Ludwig Wittgenstein Quotes)
The aspects of things that are most important for us are hidden because of their simplicity and familiarity. (One is unable to notice something because it is always before one's eyes.) The real foundations of his enquiry do not strike a man at all (Ludwig Wittgenstein Quotes)
I am not interested in constructing a building, so much as in having a perspicuous view of the foundations of possible buildings (Ludwig Wittgenstein Quotes)
If you tried to doubt everything you would not get as far as doubting anything. The game of doubting itself presupposes certainty (Ludwig Wittgenstein Quotes)
I think I summed up my attitude to philosophy when I said: philosophy ought really to be written only as a poetic composition (Ludwig Wittgenstein Quotes)
The philosopher is not a citizen of any community of ideas, that is what makes him a philosopher (Ludwig Wittgenstein Quotes)
The world of those who are happy is different from the world of those who are not (Ludwig Wittgenstein Quotes)
The aspects of a thing that are most important to us are hidden to us because of their simplicity and familiarity (Ludwig Wittgenstein Quotes)
A main cause of philosophical disease - an unbalanced diet: one nourishes one's thinking with only one kind of example (Ludwig Wittgenstein Quotes)
One can defend common sense against the attacks of philosophers only by solving their puzzles, i.e., by curing them of the temptation to attack common sense (Ludwig Wittgenstein Quotes)
Could one imagine a stone's having consciousness? And if anyone can do so - why should that not merely prove that such image-mongery is of no interest to us? (Ludwig Wittgenstein Quotes)
'Imagine a person whose memory could not retain what the word 'pain' meant - so that he constantly called different things by that name-but nevertheless used the word in a way fitting in with the usual symptoms and presuppositions of pain'-in short he uses it as we all do. Here I should like to say: a wheel that can be turned though nothing else moves with it, is not part of the mechanism (Ludwig Wittgenstein Quotes)
What is left over if I subtract the fact that my arms goes up from the fact that I raise my arm? (Ludwig Wittgenstein Quotes)
We find certains things about seeing puzzling, because we do not find the whole business of seeing puzzling enough (Ludwig Wittgenstein Quotes)
In order to draw a limit to thinking, we should have to think both sides of this limit (Ludwig Wittgenstein Quotes)
Not only is there no guarantee of the temporal immortality of the human soul, that is to say of it's eternal survival after death; but, in any case, this assumption completely fails to accomplish the purpose for which it has always been intended. Or is some riddle solved by my surviving forever? Is not this eternal life itself as much of a riddle as our present life? (Ludwig Wittgenstein Quotes)
Only when one thinks even much more madly than the philosophers can one solve their problems (Ludwig Wittgenstein Quotes)
One cannot guess how a word functions. One has to look at it's use and learn from that. But the difficulty is to remove the prejudice which stands in the way of doing this. It is not a stupid prejudice (Ludwig Wittgenstein Quotes)
A philosopher always finds more grass to feed upon in the valleys of stupidity than on the arid heights of intelligence (Ludwig Wittgenstein Quotes)
The child learns to believe a host of things. I.e. it learns to act according to these beliefs. Bit by bit there forms a system of what is believed, and in that system some things stand unshakeably fast and some are more or less liable to shift. What stands fast does so, not because it is intrinsically obvious or convincing; it is rather held fast by what lies around it (Ludwig Wittgenstein Quotes)
The difference between a good and a poor architect is that the poor architect succumbs to every temptation and the good one resists it (Ludwig Wittgenstein Quotes)
Black seems to make a colour cloudy, but darkness doesn't. A ruby could thus keep getting darker without ever becoming cloudy; but if it became blackish red, it would become cloudy (Ludwig Wittgenstein Quotes)
I won't say 'See you tomorrow' because that would be like predicting the future, and I'm pretty sure I can't do that (Ludwig Wittgenstein Quotes)
Philosophy just puts everything before us, and neither explains nor deduces anything - since everything lies open to view there is nothing to explain (Ludwig Wittgenstein Quotes)
I am still at Trattenbach, surrounded, as ever, by odiousness and baseness. I know that human beings on the average are not worth much anywhere, but here they are much more good-for-nothing and irresponsible than elsewhere (Ludwig Wittgenstein Quotes)
Mathematics is a logical method.... Mathematical propositions express no thoughts. In life it is never a mathematical proposition which we need, but we use mathematical propositions only in order to infer from propositions which do not belong to mathematics to others which equally do not belong to mathematics (Ludwig Wittgenstein Quotes)
My attitude towards him is an attitude towards a soul. I am not of the opinion that he has a soul (Ludwig Wittgenstein Quotes)
To understand a sentence means to understand a language. To understand a language means to be master of a technique (Ludwig Wittgenstein Quotes)
This procedure [selecting the simplest law], however, has no logical justification but only a psychological one (Ludwig Wittgenstein Quotes)
