Real philosophy is in fact the self-expression of nature, and the universe of which it forms part, via the human capacity for thought and language. – Paul Cudenec

You taught me the importance of following the truthful impulse for its own sake, rather than instrumentalizing it in service of unexamined desires. – Peter Limberg

The limits of my language mean the limits of my world. – Ludwig Wittgenstein, Tractatus logigo-philosphicus, 1922. From the series Great Ideas of Western Man.
