Ludwig Wittgenstein

“The world is all that is the case.”

“Whereof one cannot speak, thereof one must be silent.”

“The limits of my language mean the limits of my world.”

“To imagine a language means to imagine a form of life.”

“A serious and good philosophical work could be written consisting entirely of jokes.”

“Death is not an event in life: we do not live to experience death.”

“The solution of the problem of life is seen in the vanishing of the problem.”

“The human body is the best picture of the human soul.”

“The world of the happy is quite different from that of the unhappy.”

“Philosophy is a battle against the bewitchment of our intelligence by means of language.”

“If people never did silly things, nothing intelligent would ever get done.”

“If a lion could talk, we could not understand him.”

“The aspects of things that are most important for us are hidden because of their simplicity and familiarity.”

“Philosophy aims at the logical clarification of thoughts.”

“What is your aim in philosophy? To show the fly the way out of the fly-bottle.”

“Nothing is so difficult as not deceiving oneself.”

“I don't know why we are here, but I'm pretty sure that it is not in order to enjoy ourselves.”

“A man will be imprisoned in a room with a door that's unlocked and opens inwards; as long as it does not occur to him to pull rather than push.”
