Language Games
§ 16

Philosophy, on one view, is a battle against the bewitchment of our intelligence by means of language — and its aim is to show the fly the way out of the fly-bottle. But the fly got into the bottle by flying, which is also the only way out. So too here: the confusions this text may breed in you can only be treated with more language. There is no door out of the game marked "silence". Even leaving is a move.
