Philosophy, Summarized

While I usually try to add something to the conversation rather than copy and paste other’s words, this one is probably true, and worth spreading:

“Wittgenstein is popularly credited with the idea that most philosophical controversies are due to confusions over language. I’m not sure how much credit to give him. I suspect a lot of people realized this, but reacted simply by not studying philosophy, rather than becoming philosophy professors.” – Paul Graham
