On a Wittgensteinian theme.

Word word word word word word word.

I just used the previous sentence to express my thought that ‘the ship is sailing on the sea.’

I just used the previous sentence to tell you that I used the first sentence to express that ‘the ship is sailing on the sea.’

If you were “in my mind,” all of these sentences (including this one) would be redundant, in the sense that they’d be telling you what you already know.

Etc.

My point? I’m not sure yet, but whatever it is, I’m convinced it’s profound and ingenious.
