Additional quotes by Ludwig Wittgenstein

La soluzione del problema che tu vedi nella vita è un modo di vivere che fa scomparire ciò che rappresenta un problema.
Se la vita è problematica è segno che la tua vita non si adatta alla forma della vita. Devi quindi cambiare la tua vita; quando si adatterà alla forma, allora scomparirà ciò che è problematico.

What do I know about God and the purpose of life?
I know that this world exists.
That I am placed in it like my eye in its visual field.
That something about it is problematic, which we call its meaning.
This meaning does not lie in it but outside of it.
That life is the world.
That my will penetrates the world.
That my will is good or evil.
Therefore that good and evil are somehow connected with the meaning of the world.The meaning of life, i.e. the meaning of the world, we can call God.
And connect with this the comparison of God to a father.
