Nietzsche smeetchee.

 

I think we'd be better off with a daily Picasso quote.

 

A man once criticized Picasso for creating unrealistic art. Picasso asked him: "Can you show me some realistic art?" The man showed him a photograph of his wife. Picasso observed: "So your wife is two inches tall, two-dimensional, with no arms and no legs, and no color but only shades of grey."

Nietszche is fine if you know before you start that it leads nowhere.

How about a Wittgenstein quote section?

quote:
what can be said at all can be said clearly, and what we cannot talk about we must pass over in silence


quote:
If I cannot say a priori what elementary propositions there are, then the attempt to do so must lead to obvious nonsense.


quote:
he limits of my language mean the limits of my world.


quote:
The world of the happy is quite different from the world of the unhappy.


quote:
If we take eternity to mean not infinite temporal duration but timelessness, then eternal life belongs to those who live in the present.


quote:
There are, indeed, things that cannot be put into words. They make themselves manifest. They are what is mystical.


quote:
My aim is: to teach you to pass from a piece of disguised nonsense to something that is patent nonsense.


quote:
But if you say: "How am I to know what he means, when I see nothing but the signs he gives?" then I say: "How is he to know what he means, when he has nothing but the signs either?"


quote:
If someone asked us 'but is that true?' we might say 'yes' to him; and if he demanded grounds we might say 'I can't give you any grounds, but if you learn more you too will think the same.'


quote:
Man has to awaken to wonder— and so perhaps do peoples. Science is a way of sending him to sleep again.

Someone could write a MOTD applet to which we could all add quotes. That wouldn't end up getting abused.
