It Is To The Body

Neither The True Nor The False Roots Are Always Real; Sometimes They Are Imaginary; That Is, While We Can Always Imagine As Many Roots For Each Equation As I Have Assigned, Yet There Is Not Always A Definite Quantity Corresponding To Each Root We Have Imagined.

Intuitive Knowledge Is An Illumination Of The Soul, Whereby It Beholds In The Light Of God Those Things Which It Pleases Him To Reveal To Us By A Direct Impression Of Divine Clearness.

If You Would Be A Real Seeker After Truth, It Is Necessary That At Least Once In Your Life You Doubt, As Far As Possible, All Things.

If ... It Is Not In My Power To Arrive At The Knowledge Of Any Truth, I May At Least Do What Is In My Power, Namely, Suspend Judgement.

Before Examining This More Carefully And Investigating Its Consequences, I Want To Dwell For A Moment In The Contemplation Of God, To Ponder His Attributes In Me, To See, Admire, And Adore The Beauty Of His Boundless Light, Insofar As My Clouded Insight Allows. Believing That The Supreme Happiness Of The Other Life Consists Wholly Of The Contemplation Of Divine Greatness, I Now Find That Through Less Perfect Contemplation Of The Same Sort I Can Gain The Greatest Joy Available In This Life.
