Text Quotes
We could present spatially an atomic fact which contradicted the laws of physics, but not one which contradicted the laws of geometry (Ludwig Wittgenstein Quotes)
The process of induction is the process of assuming the simplest law that can be made to harmonize with our experience (Ludwig Wittgenstein Quotes)
The classifications made by philosophers and psychologists are like trying to classify clouds by their shape (Ludwig Wittgenstein Quotes)
I might say: if the place I want to get to could only be reached by way of a ladder, I would give up trying to get there. For the place I really have to get to is a place I must already be at now. Anything that I might reach by climbing a ladder does not interest me (Ludwig Wittgenstein Quotes)
It is truly strange how long it takes to get to know oneself. I am now sixty two years old, yet just one moment ago I realised that I absolutely love lightly toasted bread. Simultaneously, I also realised that I loathe bread when it is heavily toasted. For almost sixty years, and quite unconsciously, I have been experiencing inner joy or total despair at my relationship with grilled bread (Ludwig Wittgenstein Quotes)
Where two principles really do meet which cannot be reconciled with one another, then each man declares the other a fool and a heretic (Ludwig Wittgenstein Quotes)
My day passes between logic, whistling, going for walks, and being depressed. I wish to God that I were more intelligent and everything would finally become clear to me - or else that I needn't live much longer (Ludwig Wittgenstein Quotes)
I'm doing philosophy like an old woman, first I'm looking for my pencil, then I'm looking for my glasses, then I'm looking for my pencil again (Ludwig Wittgenstein Quotes)
The Christian religion is only for one who needs infinite help, therefore only for one who feels an infinite need. The whole planet cannot be in greater anguish than a single soul. The Christian faith - as I view it - is the refuge in this ultimate anguish. To whom it is given in this anguish to open his heart, instead of contracting it, accepts the means of salvation in his heart (Ludwig Wittgenstein Quotes)
Philosophy can be said to consist of three activities: to see the commonsense answer, to get yourself so deeply into the problem that the common sense answer is unbearable, and to get from that situation back to the commonsense answer (Ludwig Wittgenstein Quotes)
If we were to imagine an orange on the blue side or green on the red side or violet on the yellow side, it would give us the same impression as a north wind coming from the southwest (Ludwig Wittgenstein Quotes)
A French politician once wrote that it was a peculiarity of the French language that in it words occur in the order in which one thinks them (Ludwig Wittgenstein Quotes)
Where our language suggests a body and there is none: there, we should like to say, is a spirit (Ludwig Wittgenstein Quotes)
Architecture immortalizes and glorifies something. Hence there can be no architecture where there is nothing to glorify (Ludwig Wittgenstein Quotes)
If one understands eternity as timelessness, and not as an unending timespan, then whoever lives in the present lives for all time (Ludwig Wittgenstein Quotes)
There is no criterion by which to recognize what is a color, except that it is one of our colors (Ludwig Wittgenstein Quotes)
Our ordinary language has no means for describing a particular shade of color. Thus it is incapable of producing a picture of this color (Ludwig Wittgenstein Quotes)
The totality of facts determines both what is the case, and also all that is not the case (Ludwig Wittgenstein Quotes)
The only life that is happy is the life that can renounce the amenities of the world. To it the amenities of the world are so many graces of fate (Ludwig Wittgenstein Quotes)
The philosopher strives to find the liberating word, that is, the word that finally permits us to grasp what up to now has intangibly weighed down upon our consciousness (Ludwig Wittgenstein Quotes)
Philosophy aims at the logical clarification of thoughts. Philosophy is not a body of doctrine but an activity. A philosophical work consists essentially of elucidations (Ludwig Wittgenstein Quotes)
Always get rid of theory private object in this way: assume that it constantly changes, but that you do not notice the change because your memory constantly deceives you (Ludwig Wittgenstein Quotes)
I did not get my picture of the world by satisfying myself of its correctness; nor do I have it because I am satisfied of its correctness. No: it is the inherited background against which I distinguish between true and false (Ludwig Wittgenstein Quotes)
My work consists of two parts: of the one which is here, and of everything which I have not written. And precisely this second part is the important one (Ludwig Wittgenstein Quotes)
A religious symbol does not rest on any opinion. And error belongs only with opinion. One would like to say: This is what took place here; laugh, if you can (Ludwig Wittgenstein Quotes)
People are deeply imbedded in philosophical, i.e., grammatical confusions. And to free them presupposes pulling them out of the immensely manifold connections they are caught up in (Ludwig Wittgenstein Quotes)
Philosophy may in no way interfere with the actual use of language; it can in the end only describe it (Ludwig Wittgenstein Quotes)
My aim is: to teach you to pass from a piece of disguised nonsense to something that is patent nonsense (Ludwig Wittgenstein Quotes)
When we think about the future of the world, we always have in mind its being where it would be if it continued to move as we see it moving now. We do not realize that it moves not in a straight line and that its direction changes constantly (Ludwig Wittgenstein Quotes)
What has history to do with me? Mine is the first and only world! I want to report how I find the world. What others have told me about the world is a very small and incidental part of my experience. I have to judge the world, to measure things (Ludwig Wittgenstein Quotes)
