The Dead Govern The Living.

The Universe Displays No Proof Of An All-directing Mind.

Woman Is The Most Moral Element In All Humanity.

In The Final, The Positive, State, The Mind Has Given Over The Vain Search After Absolute Notions, The Origin And Destination Of The Universe, And The Causes Of Phenomena, And Applies Itself To The Study Of Their Laws - That Is, Their Invariable Relations Of Succession And Resemblance. Reasoning And Observation, Duly Combined, Are The Means Of This Knowledge. What Is Now Understood When We Speak Of An Explanation Of Facts Is Simply The Establishment Of A Connection Between Single Phenomena And Some General Facts.

Ideas Govern The World, Or Throw It Into Chaos.

The Law Is This: That Each Of Our Leading Conceptions-each Branch Of Our Knowledge-passes Successively Through Three Different Theoretical Conditions: The Theological, Or Fictitious: The Metaphysical, Or Abstract; And The Scientific, Or Positive.
