"Philosophy is a battle against the bewitchment [Verhexung ]
of our intelligence by means of our language."
— Wittgenstein, Philosophical Investigations , Section 109
"The philosophy of logic speaks of sentences and words
in exactly the sense in which we speak of them in ordinary life
when we say e.g. 'Here is a Chinese sentence,' or 'No, that only
looks like writing; it is actually just an ornament' and so on."
— Wittgenstein, Philosophical Investigations , Section 108
