Wittgenstein is an absolute fucking shit tier memer. Heidiggers first pages of being und time made me want to light the thing on fire. Plato and Aristotle are more interesting than correct. Hegel is a meme but his concept of Notion is beautiful.

Yes, Fear and Trembling is great, and probably one of the most straightforward of his books (ie not hidden behind multiple layers of textual analysis and pseudonyms). Sickness unto Death or Concept of Anxiety would also be a decent place to start. Understand that this is, at face value, an extremely religious book, but there is a lot going on philosophically if you take the time to see it.

>>12671976
Diogenes is entertaining but he is a bit of a meme recently among people who don't actually read philosophy, but they know le pee pee poo poo jerk off barrel man
