“Philosophers constantly see the method of science before their eyes, and are irresistibly tempted to ask and answer questions in the way science does. This tendency is the real source of metaphysics, and leads the philosophers into complete darkness.”
Ludwig Wittgenstein: Blue Book (via fuckyeahphilosophy)
This is a decent quote, but it’s also tautological. (Like all the truths of philosophy, right Wittgenstein?) since by definition, the things besides the sciences are metaphysics.
