"A serious and good philosophical work could be written consisting entirely of jokes." ― Ludwig Wittgenstein Topic(s): Jealousy More From Ludwig Wittgenstein "It seems to me that, in every culture, I come across a chapter headed “Wisdom.” And then I know exactly what is going to follow: “Vanity of vanities, all is vanity.”" "I sit astride life like a bad rider on a horse. I only owe it to the horse’s good nature that I am not thrown off at this very moment." "It is so characteristic, that just when the mechanics of reproduction are so vastly improved, there are fewer and fewer people who know how the music should be played." More In Jealousy "The jealous are possessed by a mad devil and a dull spirit at the same time."― Johann Kaspar Lavater "Jealousy is a dog’s bark which attracts thieves."― Karl Kraus "Jealousy is no more than feeling alone against smiling enemies."― Elizabeth Bowen
