"In order to live happily I must be in agreement with the world. And that is what ‘being happy’ means. I am then, so to speak, in agreement with that alien will on which I appear dependent. That is to say: 'I am doing the will of God.'"
Ludwig Wittgenstein
Notebooks
"In this sense God would simply be fate, or, what is the same thing: The world- which is independent of our will."
Ludwig Wittgenstein
Notebooks
This would be a good epigraph for the Book of Job.
