Language Wittgenstein

Famous quotes containing the words language and/or wittgenstein:

    “I now thinke, Love is rather deafe, than blind,
    For else it could not be,
    That she,
    Whom I adore so much, should so slight me,
    And cast my love behind:
    I’m sure my language to her, was as sweet,
    And every close did meet
    In sentence, of as subtile feet,
    As hath the youngest Hee,”
    —Ben Jonson (1572–1637)
