I am a New York journalist who specializes in articles about ideas and intellectuals. In a forthcoming piece in the New York Times Magazine I cite Wittgenstein's comment that philosophers are like garbage men who sweep the mind clean of wrong-headed concepts. I remember hearing or reading this anecdote in a college Wittgenstein seminar many years ago, but I have not been able to find a citation to back me up. The fact-checker hasn't had any luck either and I was wondering whether you could help me. Thank you. I can be reached by email at rsboynton@msn.com or by phone in New York at 718-852-6708.
Sincerely,
Robert S. Boynton
