More quotes by Ludwig Wittgenstein

"But some of the greatest achievements in philosophy could only be compared with taking up some books which seemed to belong together, and putting them on different shelves; nothing more being final about their positions than that they no longer lie side by side. The onlooker who doesn’t know the difficulty of the task might well think in such a case that nothing at all had been achieved."
"How small a thought it takes to fill a life."
"A serious and good philosophical work could be written consisting entirely of jokes."
"Humor is not a mood but a way of looking at the world. So if it is correct to say that humor was stamped out in Nazi Germany, that does not mean that people were not in good spirits, or anything of that sort, but something much deeper and more important."
"We feel that even if all possible scientific questions be answered, the problems of life have still not been touched at all."
