The world is the totality of facts, not things. (1.1) - Ludwig Wittgenstein

Nicht wie die Welt ist, ist das Mystische, sondern daß sie ist.

If anyone is unwilling to descend into himself, because this is too painful, he will remain superficial in his writing. . . If I perform to myself, then it’s this that the style expresses. And then the style cannot be my own. If you are unwilling to know what you are, your writing is a form of deceit.

Philosophers are often like little children, who first scribble random lines on a piece of paper with their pencils, and now ask an adult "What is that?"
