Quote by Ludwig Wittgenstein

The real discovery is the one which enables me to stop doing philosophy when I want to. The one that gives philosophy peace, so that it is no longer tormented by questions which bring itself into question.

The real discovery is the one which enables me to stop doing

Summary

This quote suggests that the true breakthrough in philosophy is finding an understanding that brings a sense of calm and resolution. It is the discovery that allows philosophers to put aside endless questioning about the nature of philosophy itself. It implies that reaching a point of peace and self-assurance in philosophical inquiry is the ultimate goal, freeing the philosopher from being constantly plagued by doubts and allowing them to draw a conclusion and move on without hesitation.

No one ever told me that grief felt so like fear. I am not afraid, but the sensation is like being afraid. The same fluttering in the stomach, the same restlessness, the yawning. I keep on swallowing.At other times it feels like being mildly drunk, or concussed. There is a sort of invisible blanket between the world and me. I find it hard to take in what anyone says. Or perhaps, hard to want to take it in. It is so uninteresting. Yet I want the others to be about me. I dread the moments when the house is empty. If only they would talk to one another and not to me.

I think a lot of times people design restaurants with flash in mind. I think you should design restaurants with function in mind. Make sure it's functional and works with what you're trying to accomplish. Design can come later.
