More quotes by Ludwig Wittgenstein
Everything that can be said, can be said clearly.
Ludwig Wittgenstein
A main cause of philosophical disease-an unbalanced diet: one nourishes one's thinking with only one kind of example.
Ludwig Wittgenstein
When one is frightened of the truth then it is never the whole truth that one has an inkling of.
Ludwig Wittgenstein
All philosophy is a 'critique of language' (though not in Mauthner's sense). It was Russell who performed the service of showing that the apparent logical form of a proposition need not be its real one.
Ludwig Wittgenstein
Imagine someone pointing to a place in the iris of a Rembrandt eye and saying, 'The walls of my room should be painted this color.
Ludwig Wittgenstein
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
There is not a philosophical method, though there are indeed methods, like different therapies.
Ludwig Wittgenstein
The human body is the best picture of the human soul.
Ludwig Wittgenstein
Not every religion has to have St. Augustine's attitude to sex. Why even in our culture marriages are celebrated in a church, everyone present knows what is going to happen that night, but that doesn't prevent it being a religious ceremony.
Ludwig Wittgenstein
How small a thought it takes to fill a life.
Ludwig Wittgenstein
Just be indipendent of the external world, so you don't have to fear for what's in it.
Ludwig Wittgenstein
All mathematics is tautology.
Ludwig Wittgenstein
The world of the happy is quite different from that of the unhappy.
Ludwig Wittgenstein
One age misunderstands another and a petty age misunderstands all the others in its own ugly way.
Ludwig Wittgenstein
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
I am my world.
Ludwig Wittgenstein
Philosophy, as we use the word, is a fight against the fascination which forms of expression exert upon us.
Ludwig Wittgenstein
At the end of reasons comes persuasion.
Ludwig Wittgenstein
There is such a thing as the impression of luminosity.
Ludwig Wittgenstein
A proposition is completely logically analyzed if its grammar is made completely clear: no matter what idiom it may be written or expressed in.
