Metaphysical Interior

Famous quotes containing the words metaphysical and/or interior:

“When philosophers use a word—”knowledge,” “being,” “object,” “I,” “proposition,” “name”—and try to grasp the essence of the thing, one must always ask oneself: is the word ever actually used in this way in the language-game which is its original home?—What we do is to bring words back from their metaphysical to their everyday use.”
—Ludwig Wittgenstein (1889–1951)

“Fish have water, the bushmen of the Kalahari have sand, and Houstonians have interior décor.”
—Simon Hoggart (b. 1946)
