External Reasons

Famous quotes containing the words external and/or reasons:

—Ludwig Wittgenstein (1889–1951)

“One who is publicly honest about himself ends up by priding himself somewhat on this honesty: for he knows only too well why he is honest—for the same reasons another person prefers illusion and dissimulation.”
