Ludwig Wittgenstein
“Tell me," Wittgenstein's asked a friend, "why do people always say, it was natural for man to assume that the sun went round the earth rather than that the earth was rotating?" His friend replied, "Well, obviously because it just looks as though the Sun is going round the Earth." Wittgenstein replied, "Well, what would it have looked like if it had looked as though the Earth was rotating?”

Ludwig Wittgenstein
“The temporal immortality of the soul of man, that is to say, its eternal survival also after death, is not only in no way guaranteed, but this assumption in the first place will not do for us what we always tried to make it do. Is a riddle solved by the fact that I survive forever? Is this eternal life not as enigmatic as our present one? The solution of the riddle of life in space and time lies outside space and time.”
Ludwig Wittgenstein, Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus

Ludwig Wittgenstein
“I think I summed up my attitude to philosophy when I said: philosophy ought really to be written only as a poetic composition.”

“In the world everything is as it is and happens as it does happen. In it, there is no value, - and if there were, it would be of no value.”
Ludwig Wittgenstein, Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus

Ludwig Wittgenstein
“Uttering a word is like striking a note on the keyboard of the imagination.”
Ludwig Wittgenstein
