“I should not like my writing to spare other people the trouble of thinking. But, if possible, to stimulate someone to thoughts of his own.” – Wittgenstein, Philosophical Investigations
When you define you confine. Dogmatism immobilizes the consciousness and mollifies the senses. We should learn to think for and of our self. Rigidity mimics resiliency and is not adaptability. While it may boldly stand stolid and tall, it is more of a wall. Be flexible. Embrace the blurring lines of content.
“I mistrust all systematizers and I avoid them. The will to a system is a lack of integrity.” -Nietzsche, ‘Maxims and Arrows’, #26
