«Nuestra declaración de que las proposiciones de la metafísica carecen completamente de sentido, de que no afirman nada, dejará, aun entre aquellos que concuerden intelectualmente con nuestros resultados, un penoso sentimiento de disgusto: ¿cómo es posible que tantos hombres pertenecientes a los pueblos y épocas más diversos, e incluyendo mentalidades eminentes entre ellos hubieran derrochado con tan genuino fervor tanta energía en la metafísica para que ella finalmente no consistiera sino en meras sucesiones verbales sin sentido?, y ¿cómo sería comprensible que estas obras ejerzan hasta el día de hoy una influencia tan fuerte sobre lectores y oyentes si no contienen ya no digamos errores, sino que son totalmente vacuas?

Estas dudas están justificadas, ya que la metafísica posee un contenido —solo que éste no es teorético. Las (pseudo)proposiciones de la metafísica no sirven para la descripción de relaciones objetivas, ni existentes (caso en el cual serían proposiciones verdaderas), ni inexistentes (caso en el cual  —por lo menos— serían proposiciones falsas); ellas sirven para la expresion de una actitud emotiva ante la vida».

When German philosophers play Monopoly....

It's the niceties that make the difference fate gives us the hand, and we play the cards.
