يُروى أنَّ العربَ إذا عدّت للسحابِ مئة بَرقة (ويُقال سبعين، ويُقال أربعين) لَمْ تَشُكّ أنّها ماطرة، فتنتَجِعُها وتَذهَبُ إلى مكانِها بحثًا عن الماء.
One morning when Tommy arrived at Rosro, he heard Wittgenstein’s voice and, on entering the cottage, was surprised to find ‘the Professor’ alone. ‘I thought you had company’, he said. ‘I did’, Wittgenstein answered. ‘I was talking to a very dear friend of mine – myself.’ The remark is echoed in one of his notebooks of the period:

"Nearly all my writings are private conversations with myself. Things that I say to myself tête-à-tête."

"tête-à-tête" is French for "face-to-face"

On Humor
Humour is not a mood but a way of looking at the world

- Culture and Value, by Ludwig Wittgenstein
Seeing aspects, understanding music, poetry, painting and humour, are reactions that belong to, and can only survive within, a culture, a form of life:

"What is it like for people not to have the same sense of humour? They do not react properly to each other. It’s as though there were a custom amongst certain people for one person to throw another a ball which he is supposed to catch and throw back; but some people, instead of throwing it back, put it in their pocket.¹"
