For life in the present there is no death. Death is not an event in life. It is not a fact in the world.
Ludwig WittgensteinWhere our language suggests a body and there is none: there, we should like to say, is a spirit.
Ludwig WittgensteinI 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 WittgensteinSuppose someone follows the series "1,3,5,7, ..", and in writing the series 2x+1; and he asked himself "But am I always doing the same thing, or something different every time?" If from one day to the next someone promises: "Tomorrow I will give up smoking", does he say the same thing every day, or every day something different?
