Ludwig Wittgenstein

A philosopher who is not taking part in discussions is like a boxer who never goes into the ring.

Never stay up on the barren heights of cleverness, but come down into the green valleys of silliness.

When one is frightened of the truth then it is never the whole truth that one has an inkling of.

It's good to like yourself, and that only comes from hard work, from doing. But vanity is dangerous; it can trip you badly.

A myth is a lie that conceals or reveals a truth. But if it reveals even a strand of history or truth, that's what gets my adrenaline going.

It took me realizing that a broken heart has never actually killed anyone to find the courage to ask for what I want, in just about every situation. That was part of my own growing up.
