The Past Is Pregnant With The Present.

For Since It Is Impossible For A Created Monad To Have A Physical Influence On The Inner Nature Of Another, This Is The Only Way In Which One Can Be Dependent On Another.

In Symbols One Observes An Advantage In Discovery Which Is Greatest When They Express The Exact Nature Of A Thing Briefly And, As It Were, Picture It; Then Indeed The Labor Of Thought Is Wonderfully Diminished.

I Don't Say That Bodies Like Flint, Which Are Commonly Called Inanimate, Have Perceptions And Appetition; Rather They Have Something Of That Sort In Them, As Worms Are In Cheese.

Why Is There Anything At All Rather Than Nothing Whatsoever?

There Is A World Of Created Beings - Living Things, Animals, Entelechies, And Souls - In The Least Part Of Matter.... Thus There Is Nothing Waste, Nothing Sterile, Nothing Dead In The Universe; No Chaos, No Confusions, Save In Appearance.
