“I am now doing philosophy like an old woman, who keeps on mislaying something and then has to look for it again - sometimes her glasses, sometimes her key-chain”
― Ludwig Wittgenstein, On Certainty

“Where, O death, is your victory?
Where, O death, is your sting?

“I ought to be no more than a mirror, in which my reader can see his own thinking with all its deformities so that, helped in this way, he can put it right.”
― Ludwig Wittgenstein, Culture and Value

“We know that the sensibility of the psyche depends for its intensity upon the liveliness, for its scope upon the richness, of the imagination. The preponderance of the analytical faculty must, however, of necessity, deprive the imagination of its energy and warmth, while a more restricted sphere of objects must reduce its wealth. Hence, the abstract thinker very often has a cold heart, since he dissects his impressions, and impressions can move the soul only as long as they remain whole; while the man of practical affairs often has a narrow heart, since his imagination, imprisoned within the unvarying confines of his own calling, is incapable of extending itself to appreciate other ways of seeing and knowing.”
― Friedrich Schiller, On the Aesthetic Education of Man
