Ludwig Wittgenstein Quotes

I'm coming 'round to the view that there's only a personal view of the world.

You can't tell someone they are wrong about their own life.

You've seen what you've seen; you've felt what you've felt. Ideology is for people who don't trust their own experiences and perceptions of the world.

It's easier to be skeptical because it's easier to understand that every human lives in their own world.

The world only exists in your eyes. You can make it as big or as small as you want

Remember that my view, the only true view I can see with, is through the black eyes that I have.

When someone starts talking to me about the truth, what I hear is what they're telling me about themselves.

What is true for you is what you have observed yourself. And when you lose that, you have lost everything.

I was the world in which I walked.

People make their own reality. That was what Praxis had taught him years ago. A hundred people can witness the exact same event, and give two hundred and three different accountings of it.

The world is nothing but my perception of it. I see only through myself. I hear only through the filter of my story.

Truth, after all, wears a different face to everybody, and it would be too tedious to wait till all were agreed. She is said to lie at the bottom of a well, for the very reason, perhaps, that whoever looks down in search of her sees his own image at the bottom, and is persuaded not only that he has seen the goddess, but that she is far better looking than he had imagined.

We see the world, not as it is, but as we are -- or, as we are conditioned to see it. When we open our mouths to describe what we see, we in effect describe ourselves, our perceptions, our paradigms.

We don't believe other people's experiences can tell us all that much about our own. I think this is an illusion of uniqueness.

All of us create our own versions of an event, of our lives, even, not because we're liars, necessarily, but because we can only see and understand the truth from our own viewpoint, and a shifting viewpoint at that.

We see the world through the lens of all our experiences; that is a fundamental part of the human condition.

You live in the image you have of the world. Every one of us lives in a different world, with different space and different time.

What is my truth can not be your truth.

We are artists. We are all subjective people; we have a point of view. It doesn't mean we are right.

Everyone's going to have their own experience and perspective on everything.

Everything is subjective, right? A question that's easy for you is hard for somebody else, and vice versa.

The prism through which you experience life is so unique. There is no objective experience.

Life is the movie you see through your own eyes.

If it is not beautiful for someone, it does not exist.

As we are all solipsists, and all die, the world dies with us. Only very minor literature aims at apocalypse.
