A rule
is || stands there, like a
sign post.
Does
it || the sign post leave no doubt
about || as to
the || what path I
have to take?
Does it show in what direction I
am || have to go when
I have passed it
? || ;
whether
by || along the
road
, or
the field path || along the
footpath, or
across
country || over hedge & ditch?
But where does it say in what sense I
have || ought to follow it; whether
in the direction of the hand or, e.g., in the
opposite
one || direction?
–
And
suppose
instead of one sign post there
were || was
a
closed chain of sign posts, or chalk marks
ran || running along
60
¤ the
ground
; || : is there only
one interpretation for || way of
interpreting them?
–
Then || Therefore I
may || can say the
sign
post || sign-post surely doesn't leave
any doubt.
Or
more correctly || rather:
It || it
sometimes leaves a doubt,
and sometimes
not || doesn't.
And this
is
not || isn't a
philosophical proposition any more || longer, but an || any
longer a philosophical proposition; it's an
experiential proposition.
