The Wittgenstein "language" quote I think of is * The limits of my language are the limits of my world.* But that is young Wittgenstein. Older Wittgenstein (in his 40s and 50s) had moved to "the language game". He might have revised it: *If your find your world limiting, play a new language.* @philipthrift -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Everything List" group.
