The world is all that is the case.
The world is the totality of facts, not of things.
The world is determined by the facts, and by their being all the facts.
For the totality of facts determines what is the case, and also whatever is not the case.
The facts in logical space are the world.
(...)
Space, time, colour are forms of objects.
The configuration of objects produces states of affairs.
In a state of affairs objects fit into one another like the links of a chain.
In a state of affairs objects stand in a determinate relation to one another.
Form is the possibility of structure.
The structure of a fact consists of the structures of states of affairs.
The totality of existing states of affairs is the world.
(...)
We picture facts to ourselves.
A picture presents a situation in logical space, the existence and non-existence of states of affairs.
A picture is a model of reality.
(...)
What a picture represents is its sense.
The agreement or disagreement or its sense with reality constitutes its truth or falsity.
(...)
There are no pictures that are true a priori.
A logical picture of facts is a thought.
The totality of true thoughts is a picture of the world.
