Um sarro esse editorial psicografado do Wittgenstein para a revista inglesa Philosophy Now:

“Dear reader, welcome to this special issue .... [Loud stage whisper] What? That is an utterly stupid suggestion! Why should the reader want to know anything about me? It is the ideas alone that count!... Welcome to this issue. We will be discussing the nature of language. I used to think that language was about constructing logical pictures of the world, and that any remarks that couldn’t be construed as pictures were therefore utterly meaningless. That included any talk about ethics and religion, vital though they are. Later...” [At this point there was a 2 hour silence while the medium drummed his fingers on the table and stared out of the window], “Later I thought that language was more like a set of tools. You use different tools for different tasks. Or maybe language is like a game, which is meaningful between people who accept the rules of the game. Different people play different language games in different situations. [At this point the medium stared at me with great hostility] I can’t think of anything else to say. I have no ideas today .... In different situations. Most philosophical problems are a result of mistakes about language. I want to show people where those mistakes are, so they can stop bothering with philosophy. Your readers are probably quite intelligent – why are they wasting their time reading this? Never mind. I will do them a favour by showing them what a mistake it all is. Then they will all cancel their subscriptions and you will have to get an honest job working in a factory.”
