Ludwig Wittgenstein

Ludwig Wittgenstein was a famous philosopher who wrote many books and articles about how to think about ideas. He believed that sometimes people think too much and become confused or unhappy. He thought that the best way to be happy and think clearly was to be simple and honest in your thinking. He also wrote about how language can help people communicate their thoughts. Wittgenstein's ideas can be difficult to understand, but his writing has helped many people better understand their own thoughts and feelings.
