Stray Lines...

I'm going to paraphrase, just to test my powers of recollection. I was reading a little article about Ludwig Wittgenstein (greatest Philosopher of the 20th Century? Yikes, that's top billing!).  

Little Ludwig was a handful.  There are a few stray lines that resonate with me this a.m. For instance, (again, I am paraphrasing): 

To live in the moment is to live in the Eternal.
The Happy Human Being experiences a different world than the Unhappy Human Being.
What we know is dwarfed by what we don't know.
We should be silent about things we don't know.
Joy. It is the only way to live.

Okay, that's my morning take on Little Ludwig. Take what you need and leave the rest...
