“Making itself intelligible is suicide for philosophy.”

Simplified Meaning:

Philosophy aims to explore deep and complex ideas that often don't have simple answers. When trying to make these ideas clear and easy for everyone to understand, something important is lost. Imagine an artist creating a very detailed painting that makes people think and feel different things. If the artist had to explain every small detail to make everyone understand it in the same way, the magic and personal interpretation would disappear. In philosophy, if every big idea was put into simple terms, the mystery and depth would be gone. This depth is what makes philosophy special and valuable. Taking away the challenge of understanding these ideas can make philosophy less meaningful. Like with art, sometimes the struggle to understand is what makes the journey valuable. So, it's okay if philosophical ideas are tough to grasp because that's what they're meant to be.
