"What we cannot speak about we must pass over in silence."
~ Ludwig Wittegenstein
I have tried reading the Tractatus several times and the only thing I could take away from it was this quote. It is the final line of a probably one of the most strictly logical pieces of writing ever written by a human being. You can read the entire book here.

Don't feel bad, Wittegenstein is gibberish, so is Spinoza.
That's what my philosophy major taught me.
that thing is supposed to be logical??
no, that's the point. The final statement is so illogical that it doesn't make sense.
