One is reminded of the fact that those whom Wittgenstein influenced most strongly, particularly in the 1930s, did not enter academic life. There is therefore a large and important aspect of Wittgenstein’s influence that is not, and cannot be, reflected in the large body of academic literature that Wittgenstein’s work has inspired.

أعتقد تأثير فيتكنشتاين الحقيقي ما جان بسبب ما كتبه ونشره (هو أصلًا ما نشر غير مقالة وكتاب واحد طول حياته). تأثيره الحقيقي جان عبر حياته الشخصية وكونه أثّر بشكل قوي بحياة هواي ناس جانوا همّ أيضًا مؤثرين كلٌّ بمجاله الخاص: بيرتراند راسل وجورج إدوارد موور والـ Vienna circle بمجال الفلسفة، وكاينز بمجال الإقتصاد، وغيرهم هواي بمجالات مثل الطب والرياضيات وغيرها...

His magnum opus, his greatest work, was his own personal life and what he said and did daily, which is by definition more personal and harder to access. One of his friends described him: "he had all the characteristics of a prophet"

"Well, God has arrived. I met him on the 5:15 train. He has a plan to stay in Cambridge permanently."

- J. M. Keynes describing Wittgenstein to his wife.

His point of view and his attitude toward people and problems, even theoretical problems, were much more similar to those of a creative artist than to those of a scientist; one might almost say, similar to those of a religious prophet or a seer.

- Rudolf Carnap, one of the members of Vienna circle

One word that comes from your heart would mean more to me than 3 pages out of your head!

— Ludwig Wittgenstein, in a letter to a friend

Freud’s explanations have more in common with a mythology than with science; for example, Freud produces no evidence for his view that anxiety is always a repetition of the anxiety we felt at birth, and yet ‘it is an idea which has a marked attraction,’ as Wittgenstein remarked:
It has the attraction which mythological explanations have, explanations which say that this is all a repetition of something that has happened before. And when people do accept or adopt this, then certain things seem clearer and easier for them.

— The Duty Of Genius (a biography of Ludwig Wittgenstein)

عندما حلَمَ حكماءُ الأزمنة القديمة بأنْ يجعلوا العالم كله مسالِمًا وسعيدًا، أولًا أخذوا على عاتقهم مسؤولية فرضِ النظام في ولاياتهم ومُدُنِهم. قبل أنْ ينظّموا ولاياتهم، فرضوا النظام في عوائلهم. قبل أنْ ينظّموا عوائلهم، تعلّموا ضبط النفس وفرضَ النظام في ذواتِهِم. قبل أنْ يضبطوا أنفسهم، حاولوا أنْ يكونوا صادقين في أفكارهم. قبل أنْ يكونوا صادقين في أفكارهم، حاولوا أنْ يُبصِروا حقيقةَ الأشياء كما هي.

A person often does not know how rich he is until he experiences what kinds of rich people will steal from him.
