"Death is not an event in life: we do not live to experience death. If we take eternity to mean not infinite temporal duration but timelessness, then eternal life belongs to those who live in the present"
- Ludwig Wittgenstein
About this Quote
Ludwig Wittgenstein is suggesting that death is not something that can be experienced due to the fact that it is not a part of life. He believes that immortality does not mean living permanently in a temporal sense, however rather residing in today minute without accessory to the past or future. Therefore, those who are really residing in today are the ones who are experiencing immortality.
