Ludwig Wittgenstein
»The limits of my language mean the limits of my world«
»Our language can be seen as an old city: a maze of narrow streets and little squares, old and new buildings and houses with additions from various periods; all surrounded by a multitude of new boroughs with straight streets and uniform houses.«
»Where of one cannot speak, there of one must be silent.«
»A logical picture of facts is a thought.«
»Philosophy is a battle against the bewitchment of our intelligence by means of language.«
Sri Ramakrishna

»The tie so sorowful that you wear and that adorns you oh civilised one take it of if you wish to breathe«
Zhuang Zi
»Once Zhuangzi dreamt he was a butterfly, a butterfly flitting and fluttering around, happy with himself and doing as he pleased. He didn't know he was Zhuangzi. Suddenly he awoke and there he was, solid and unmistakable Zhuangzi. But he didn't know if he was Zhuangzi who had dreamt he was a butterfly, or a butterfly dreaming he was Zhuangzi. Between Zhuangzi and a butterfly there must be some distinction! This is called the Transformation of Things.«
Karl Marx
»The philosophers have only interpreted the world, in various ways; the point is to change it.«
