on certainty 152


152. I do not explicitly learn the propositions that stand fast for me. I can discover them subsequently like the axis around which a body rotates. The axis is not fixed in the sense that anything holds it fast, but the movement around it determines its immobility.



yes you’ll figure out the propositions that work for you –

but there is no certainty here –

what works for you will be a function of circumstance –

and circumstance can and does change
