Looking at these language-games, we don't come across the ideas of the past, the future, and the present in their problematic and almost mysterious aspect. What this aspect is and how it comes about that it appears can be most characteristically exemplified if we look at the question, “Where does the present go when it becomes past, and where is the past?” – – under what circumstances has this question an allurement for us? For under certain circumstances it hasn't, and we should wave it away as nonsense.
