6.53 The correct method in philosophy would really be the following: to say nothing
except what can be said, i.e. propositions of natural science--i.e. something that has
nothing to do with philosophy--and then, whenever someone else wanted to say something
metaphysical, to demonstrate to him that he had failed to give a meaning to certain signs in
his propositions. Although it would not be satisfying to the other person--he would not
have the feeling that we were teaching him philosophy--this method would be the only
strictly correct one.
--Ludwig Wittgenstein "Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus"
