The German poet’s dauntingly eclectic accomplishments were founded on a tireless interrogation of how a life should be lived.

clarity in philosophy is mostly about replacing the language you speak, one where you can’t be sure which inferences are ok to draw from an assertion til you’ve seen someone else assert the same, with another language, where no-one at all knows which inferences are fine to draw
