There is not a philosophical method, though there are indeed methods, like different therapies.

Ludwig Wittgenstein 307 quotes

The aspects of things that are...

The aspects of things that are most important for us are hidden because of their simplicity and familiarity. (One is unable to notice something because it is always before one's eyes.) The real foundations of his enquiry do not strike a man at all

Ludwig Wittgenstein 307 quotes

For a large class of cases -- ...

For a large class of cases -- though not for all -- in which we employ the word ''meaning'' it can be defined thus: the meaning of a word is its use in the language.

Ludwig Wittgenstein 307 quotes

Ludwig Wittgenstein 307 quotes

Ludwig Wittgenstein 307 quotes

Genius is talent in which character makes itself heard.

Ludwig Wittgenstein 307 quotes

...since social relationships ...

...since social relationships are always ambiguous, since my thought is only a unit, since my thoughts create rifts as much as they unite, since my words establish contacts by being spoken and create isolation by remaining unspoken, since an immense moat separates the subjective certitude that I have for myself from the objective reality that I represent to others, since I never stop finding myself guilty even though I feel I am innocent....

Telling someone something he does not understand is pointless, even if you add that he will not be able to understand it.

In order to be able to set a limit to thought, we should have to find both sides of the limit thinkable (i.e. we should have to be able to think what cannot be thought).

Ludwig Wittgenstein 307 quotes

If a person tells me he has been to the worst places I have no reason to judge him; but if he tells me it was his superior wisdom that enabled him to go there, then I know he is a fraud.

It is obvious that an imagined #ЂЋ world , however different it may be from the real one, must have something - a form - in common with it.

Death is not an experience in life; we do not live to experience death.
