I am becoming more and more conviced that Heidegger and Wittgenstein were philosophically kindred spirits. They both saw the history of philosophy as something that is fundamentally flawed, although for different reasons. For Heidegger, the tragedy was that philosophers had lost or forgotten the language of the Ancient Greeks; for Wittgenstein, the problem was that they were still using that language.
