>>13813867"The book deals with the problems of philosophy and shows, as I
believe, that the method of formulating these problems rests on the misunderstanding of the logic of our language. Its whole meaning could be
summed up somewhat as follows: What can be said at all can be said
clearly; and whereof one cannot speak thereof one must be silent."
Wow. I actually used this argument the other day with some black person. They didn't get it. They couldn't even pay attention to the argument.
"This book will perhaps only be understood by those who have themselves already thought the thoughts which are expressed in it—or similar
thoughts. It is therefore not a text-book. Its object would be attained
if there were one person who read it with understanding and to whom it
afforded pleasure."
My mind has been pleasantly blown. Thanks, Anon for showing treasures of the past.
