153. No one
ever taught me that my hands don’t disappear when I am not paying attention to
them. Nor can I be said to presuppose the truth of this proposition in my
assertions etc., (as if they rested on it) while it only gets sense from the
rest of our procedure of asserting.
a proposition –
is open to question –
open to doubt –
if it is asserted
and if it is asserted –
its sense –
is open to question –
open to doubt –
uncertain
if it is not asserted
–
it’s not in the picture
