Discussion
Which one of the following statements was propounded by Wittgenstein ?
Answer: D
The statement 'Whereof one cannot speak, thereof one must remain silent' was propounded by Wittgenstein; it is the final proposition of the Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus. 'To be is to be perceived' is Berkeley's saying, 'I think therefore I am' is Descartes's cogito, and 'I am therefore I think' is not a recognised statement of any of them. The answer is Where of one cannot speak, there of one must remain silent. The Tractatus ends with the line that what can be said can be said clearly, and that what cannot be said must be passed over in silence.
