Página 93 - The object of knowledge, whatever it may be, is always something more than is naturally or usually regarded as the object. It always is, and must be, the object with the addition of one's self, — object plus subject ; thing, or thought, mecum. Self is an integral and essential part of every object of cognition ' — a various wording of the general doctrine.
Página 404 - Therefore, we can be ignorant only of what can possibly be known ; in other words, there can be an ignorance only of that of which there can be a knowledge.
Página 510 - All absolute existences are contingent except "one; in other words, there is One, but only " one, Absolute Existence which is strictly " necessary ; and that existence is a supreme " and infinite and everlasting Mind in synthesis

If this rigorous necessity is not their character to the very letter, — if there is a single weak point in the system, — if there be any one...
Página 510 - Neither the existence nor the non-existence of things is "conceivable out of relation to our intelligence, and therefore " the highest and most binding law of all reason is, that under no " circumstances can a supreme mind be conceived as abstracted
Página 80 - I' is the object of intel" lect alone. We are never objects of sense to ourselves. A man "can see and touch his body, but he cannot see and touch "himself. When the cognizance of self is laid down as the " condition of all knowledge, this of course does not mean that " certain objects of sense (external things, to wit) are apprehended " through certain other objects of sense (our own bodies, namely), " for such a statement would be altogether futile.
Página 165 - To this day, all philosophic truth is Plato rightly divined; all philosophic error is Plato misunderstood.
