To The Totality Of Purposes

When Reading My Present Treatise, Bear In Mind That By "faith" We Do Not Understand Merely That Which Is Uttered With The Lips, But Also That Which Is Apprehended By The Soul, The Conviction That The Object [of Belief] Is Exactly As It Is Apprehended. If, As Regards Real Or Supposed Truths, You Content Yourself With Giving Utterance To Them In Words, Without Apprehending Them Or Believing In Them, Especially If You Do Not Seek Real Truth, You Have A Very Easy Task As, In Fact, You Will Find Many Ignorant People Professing Articles Of Faith Without Connecting Any Idea With Them.

In The Realm Of Nature There Is Nothing Purposeless, Trivial, Or Unnecessary

You Will Certainly Not Doubt The Necessity Of Studying Astronomy And Physics, If You Are Desirous Of Comprehending The Relation Between The World And Providence As It Is In Reality, And Not According To Imagination.

The Goal Of Good Health Is To Enable A Person To Acquire Wisdom.

I Believe With Perfect Faith That The Creator, Blessed Be His Name, Is Not A Body, And That He Is Free From All Accidents Of Matter, And That He Has Not Any Form Whatsoever.
