“Shall I get anything out??! It would be awful if I did not and all my work would be lost. However I am not losing courage and go on thinking … I very often now have the indescribable feeling as though my work was all sure to be lost entirely in some way or other. But I still hope that this won’t come true.”

Ludwig Wittgenstein, “Letter to Bertrand Russell (5 September 1913)”
