5827( 2) If so, what is its nature?
5827( 2) If so, what sort of object can it be?
5827( 2) If so, what sort of object can it be?
5827APPEARANCE AND REALITY Is there any knowledge in the world which is so certain that no reasonable man could doubt it?
5827And if so, have we any means of finding out what it is like?
5827Are good and evil of importance to the universe or only to man?
5827Assuming that there is physical space, and that it does thus correspond to private spaces, what can we know about it?
5827But are we to say that nothing is knowledge except what is validly deduced from true premisses?
5827But if the reality is not what appears, have we any means of knowing whether there is any reality at all?
5827But the real question is: Do_ any_ number of cases of a law being fulfilled in the past afford evidence that it will be fulfilled in the future?
5827Has the universe any unity of plan or purpose, or is it a fortuitous concourse of atoms?
5827Hence, two very difficult questions at once arise; namely,( 1) Is there a real table at all?
5827How are we to know, in a given case, that our belief is not erroneous?
5827I exist, and my room exists; but does''in''exist?
5827If any one asks:''Why should I accept the results of valid arguments based on true premisses?''
5827If we ask''Where and when does this relation exist?''
5827If, then, we can not trust what we see with the naked eye, why should we trust what we see through a microscope?
5827In other words, can we ever_ know_ anything at all, or do we merely sometimes by good luck believe what is true?
5827Is this belief a mere blind outcome of past experience, or can it be justified as a reasonable belief?
5827It will be remembered that we asked two questions; namely,( 1) Is there a real table at all?
5827The mental act is undoubtedly mental, but is there any reason to suppose that the thing apprehended is in any sense mental?
5827The question we have to consider in this chapter is: What is the nature of this real table, which persists independently of my perception of it?
5827The question which Kant put at the beginning of his philosophy, namely''How is pure mathematics possible?''
5827The question which must next occupy us is this: How is it possible that there should be such knowledge?
5827There is, however, a preliminary question which is rather less difficult, and that is: What do we_ mean_ by truth and falsehood?
5827Thus our two questions may be re- stated as follows:( 1) Is there any such thing as matter?
5827We have experience of past futures, but not of future futures, and the question is: Will future futures resemble past futures?
5827What reason, then, have we for believing that there are such public neutral objects?
5827What things are there in the universe whose existence is known to us owing to our being acquainted with them?
5827Which of these is the''real''table?
5827Why?
5827and''What beliefs are false?''
5827and''What is falsehood?''
5827not''What beliefs are true?''

16595''Do they often go where glory waits''em?''
16595''Nor a gum- gum?''
16595''What should you say this was?''
16595''What_ is_ a gum- gum?''
16595''Whose?''
16595''Wot do you mean?''
16595And how do ye thrive, And how many bairns hae ye now?

16595you''re singing, are you?''
2529An egg for breakfast: well, what of it?
2529( 2) DOES EVERYTHING OBSERVABLE OBEY THE LAWS OF PHYSICS?
2529( 2) What are we feeling when we say this?
2529( 2) What is the relation of this present occurrence to the past event which is remembered?
2529( 3) CAN WE OBSERVE ANYTHING INTRINSICALLY DIFFERENT FROM SENSATIONS?
2529And even if SOME image does persist, how do we know that it is the previous image unchanged?
2529And what sort of evidence is logically possible?
2529Buhler says( p. 303):"We ask ourselves the general question:''WHAT DO WE EXPERIENCE WHEN WE THINK?''
2529But why should we suppose that there is some one common cause of all these appearances?
2529Can we constitute memory out of images together with suitable beliefs?
2529Can we say, conversely, that it consists wholly of such accuracy of response?
2529Does the image persist in presence of the sensation, so that we can compare the two?
2529For what is it to imagine a winged horse but to affirm that the horse[ that horse, namely] has wings?
2529How do I know that there is awareness?
2529How do we know that the sensation resembles the previous image?
2529How is it possible to know that a memory- image is an imperfect copy, without having a more accurate copy by which to replace it?
2529How, then, are we to find any way of comparing the present image and the past sensation?
2529If we are asked"What is the capital of France?"
2529If we suppose it effected, what would become of the difference between vital and mechanical movements?
2529If you ask a boy"What is twice two?"
2529Is there ultimately no difference, or do images remain as irreducibly and exclusively psychological?
2529Is"consciousness"ultimate and simple, something to be merely accepted and contemplated?
2529It is clear that the question turns upon another, namely, which can we know best, the psychology of animals or that of human beings?
2529It may be said: If there is no single existent which is the source of all these"aspects,"how are they collected together?
2529Now, what are the occasions when, we actively believe that Charles I was executed?
2529One of the laws which distinguish psychology( or nerve- physiology?)
2529Or that insects, in laying eggs, are concerned for the preservation of their species?
2529Or, to state the same question in other terms: How is psychology to be distinguished from physics?
2529Our two questions are, in the case of memory:( 1) What is the present occurrence when we remember?
2529Suppose two children in a school, both of whom are asked"What is six times nine?"
2529There are two distinct questions to be asked:( 1) What causes us to say that a thing occurs?
2529What sort of evidence is there?
2529Who can believe, for example, that a new- born baby is aware of the necessity of food for preserving life?
2529William James''s view was first set forth in an essay called"Does''consciousness''exist?
4723And if so, what cause can be assigned of so widespread and predominant an error?
4723And is not this a direct repugnancy, and altogether inconceivable?
4723Are all these but so many chimeras and illusions on the fancy?
4723BUT DO NOT YOU YOURSELF PERCEIVE OR THINK OF THEM ALL THE WHILE?
4723But how are we enlightened by being told this is done by attraction?
4723But secondly, though we should grant this unknown substance may possibly exist, yet where can it be supposed to be?
4723But why should we trouble ourselves any farther, in discussing this material SUBSTRATUM or support of figure and motion, and other sensible qualities?
4723But, since one idea can not be the cause of another, to what purpose is that connexion?
4723But, you will insist, what if I have no reason to believe the existence of Matter?
4723Does it not suppose they have an existence without the mind?
4723For example, about the Resurrection, how many scruples and objections have been raised by Socinians and others?
4723For how can it be known that the things which are perceived are conformable to those which are not perceived, or exist without the mind?
4723For, what are the fore- mentioned objects but the things we perceive by sense?
4723If so, why may not the Intelligence do it, without his being at the pains of making the movements and putting them together?
4723May we not, for example, be affected with the promise of a GOOD THING, though we have not an idea of what it is?
4723Must we suppose the whole world to be mistaken?
4723What must we think of Moses''rod?
4723What must we think of houses, rivers, mountains, trees, stones; nay, even of our own bodies?
4723What therefore becomes of the sun, moon and stars?
4723What therefore can be meant by calling matter an occasion?
4723Why does not an empty case serve as well as another?
4723Would not a man be deservedly laughed at, who should talk after this manner?
4723and is it not plainly repugnant that any one of these, or any combination of them, should exist unperceived?
4723and is it possible to separate, even in thought, any of these from perception?
4723and what do we PERCEIVE BESIDES OUR OWN IDEAS OR SENSATIONS?
4723was it not really turned into a serpent; or was there only a change of ideas in the minds of the spectators?
4723what if I can not assign any use to it or explain anything by it, or even conceive what is meant by that word?
12890Canst thou not minister to a mind diseased?
12890Do you renounce the devils, and all their words and works; Thonar, Wodin, and Saxenote?
12890_ Lear._ What hast thou been? 12890 ''Sancta Marie,''said he,''Bessie, why makes thow sa great dule and sair greting for ony wardlie thing?'' 12890 Are his words more cheerful than the heathen''s( Homer)? 12890 But at this point arises a further question to demand solution: what shall be hereafter? 12890 But how? 12890 But is it not better that somewhat too much should be written upon such a subject than too little? 12890 Can it be that evil influences have the upper hand in this world? 12890 For the devil most emphatically spoke through the witches; but how could he in any sense be said to speak through Norns? 12890 Hamlet responds to their entreaties not to follow the spectre thus--Why, what should be the fear?
12890Have Norns chappy fingers, skinny lips, and beards?
12890How were reasonable men to account for this manifest conflict between rigorous logic and more rigorous fact?
12890I do not set my life at a pin''s fee; And, for my soul, what can it do to that, Being a thing immortal as itself?"
12890If evil is supreme here, shall it not be so in that undiscovered country,--that life to come?
12890In"King Lear,"what man shows any virtue who does not receive punishment for the same?
12890It is not worth the living; for what power has man against the fiends?
12890Live you, or are you aught That man may question?
12890London: T. Harper, 1641(?
12890May Macbeth, who would fain do right, were not evil so ever present with him, be juggled with and led to destruction by fiends?
12890May a Hamlet, patiently struggling after truth and duty, be put upon and abused by the darker powers?
12890May an undistinguishing fate sweep away at once the good with the evil-- Hamlet with Laertes; Desdemona with Iago; Cordelia with Edmund?
12890Naturally alarmed, he cried out,"''In the name of God, what make I heere?''
12890The devil would occasionally appear in the likeness of a living person; and how could that be accounted for?
12890The first again asks,''Where?''
12890The first begins by asking,''When shall we three meet again?''
12890The question is, did he retain both, or did he reject one and retain the other?
12890What are these Powers?
12890What do the simple people then?
12890Will it apply with equal force to Norns?
12890[ 1] Heerewith he began to curse and to banne, saying,''What a poxe do I heare?
12890[ 2] Live you, or are you ought That man may question?
12890[ 3]_ Macbeth._ Speak if you can, what are you?
12890_ What else?_ And shall I couple hell?
12890_ What else?_ And shall I couple hell?
12890is his hope more near, his trust more sure, his reading of fate more happy?
12890is not your husband mad?
12890that, be a man never so honest, never so pure, he may nevertheless become the sport of blind chance or ruthless wickedness?
34112''Are those black doors the cells?'' 34112 ''But suppose a man were here for a twelve- month?
34112''Did you mean to say anything, you young shaver?'' 34112 ''Do they never walk in the yard?''
34112''Do you hear his worship ask if you''ve anything to say?'' 34112 ''Do you mean to say that in all that time he would never come out at that little iron door for exercise?''
34112''Has the boy ever been here before?'' 34112 ''Have you anything to ask this witness, boy?''
34112''Have you anything to say at all?'' 34112 ''Hold your tongue, will you?''
34112''How long has he been here?'' 34112 ''I beg your pardon,''replied Mr. Pickwick,''what did you say?
34112''I''m an Englishman, ai n''t I?'' 34112 ''Now then, where are the witnesses?''
34112''Oh, you know me, do you?'' 34112 ''Possible?''
34112''Pray, why do they call this place the Tombs?'' 34112 ''Sometimes, I suppose?''
34112''Well, I do n''t mind that; it''s only a twopence apiece more,''said Mr. Martin;''What do you say now? 34112 ''What is this?''
34112''What will you take to be paid out?'' 34112 ''When do the prisoners take exercise?''
34112''When is that?'' 34112 ''When will he be tried?''
34112''Will you open one of the doors?'' 34112 ''Yes''"''Are they all full?''
34112''Childbed?''
34112''Do n''t?''
34112''Live down there?
34112''Live down there?''
34112''Lord, why did n''t you say at first that you was willing to come down handsome?''"
34112''My friend,''said Mr. Pickwick,''you do n''t really mean to say that human beings live down these wretched dungeons?''
34112''The regular chummage is two- and- six; will you take three bob?''
34112''What will you take to go out?''
34112''Where are my privileges?''
34112''Where are they?
34112''Would you like to hear it read?''
34112As to escaping, what chances were there of escape?
34112As to fire in the prison, if one were to break out while he lay there?
34112Fagin, Fagin, are you a man?''
34112For what offense can that lonely child, of ten or twelve years old, be shut up here?
34112How did I know it?
34112If it was not a trick to frighten him, and those were the real hours treading on each other''s heels, where would he be, when they came around again?
34112It was very dark; why did n''t they bring a light?
34112Oh, that boy?
34112Shall we go in?
34112This is rather hard treatment for a young witness, is it not?
34112To everybody in succession Captain Hopkins said:''Have you read it?''
34112To everybody in succession Captain Porter said:''Would you like to hear it read?''
34112What availed the noise and bustle of cheerful morning, which penetrated even there, to him?

34112Why?''
34112Wot is this here business?
34112replied Mr. Roker, with indignant astonishment;''why should n''t I?''
15299Does Mr. Pitt,said he,"not know that Mr. Fox was of all persons most offensive to him?"
15299Had not Fox always cheered the popular Government of France, and had he not always advocated peace with bloodstained rebels? 15299 Well, Hardy,"says Nelson to him,"how goes the battle?"
15299What will Nelson think of us?
15299Who has lived as long as he chose? 15299 Would our ancestors have done it?"
15299And, after all, does not mine furnish, on the whole, a record which does me honour?
15299But have I anything to resemble these?
15299But what of Nelson?
15299Do you not think more highly of Nelson than of the best engineers who construct fortifications?
15299Do you suppose I did it in order that some disaster should be the result?
15299Drake quickly disillusioned him, and demanded,"If we are not at war, why have English merchants been arrested?"
15299For what other reason do you think I disobeyed orders?
15299Hardy is long in coming; he fears that he may be killed, and calls out,"Will no one bring Hardy to me?"
15299Is it an ideal ambition to bring it about?
15299Is it possible that he knew that Nelson was her father, and believed in the purity of his friendship for Emma and himself?
15299May not the people give their own Magistrate the name they choose?"
15299The colonies are to France only a secondary object; and does not your Majesty already possess more than you know how to preserve?
15299To destroy our finances?
15299To form a coalition with some Powers on the Continent?
15299To renew intestine troubles?
15299To wrest from France her colonies?
15299What business had he, as the first sailor in the world, to enter into such a compact with another man''s wife?
15299What difference would his lack of knowledge have made?
15299What family as numerous could make a finer impression?"
15299What family, in similar circumstances, would have done better?
15299What is the good of it if it turns out nothing but unrestrained confusion?
15299What need was there for Nelson to take umbrage at and violate the treaty made by Foote in the British name?
15299Where''s the foot will not flinch or fly?
15299Where''s the heart that aspires the fray?
15299Who can stop him?"
15299Who so confident as to defy Time, the fellest of mortals''foes Joints in his armour who can spy?
15299Why bleeds old England''s band By the fire of Danish land, That smites the very hand Stretched to save?
15299Why ceased not here the strife, Oh, ye brave?
15299Why"luckily"?
15299Will they let us have any?
15299Your nation is at the highest point of prosperity, what can it hope from war?
15299_ 3rd Verse_: Drake, he''s in his hammock till the great Armadas come,( Capten, art tha sleepin''there below?)
47658And suppose that he is forced into the presence of the sun himself, is he not likely to be pained and irritated? 47658 You have read him?"
47658And have we in our limited experience anything that will guide us to the attainment of this object?
47658And is their truth their correspondence?
47658And so the question arises, how far are our ideas about things truths about reality?
47658And to what shall we turn for truth?
47658Are our ideas of this nature?
47658Are they reality?
47658Are we about to be forced to modify our conclusions?
47658Are we, like people in a theatre queue, only able to move from behind forward as the place is vacated for us in front?
47658But even so, the pragmatist will urge, is its truth anything else but its usefulness as shown in the practical consequences of believing it?
47658But what was the nature of the need, and what was the method by which the postulate was called forth?
47658Can we not, for example, have an idea of not- red just as well as an idea of red?
47658Can we or can we not make our conceptions work?
47658Clearly we can not claim to know it by direct experience, by acquaintance; it is not a_ that_ of which we can ask_ what_?
47658Do we not judge its claim to truth by the practical consequences involved in accepting or rejecting it?
47658Does it actually exist?
47658Does not the history of science prove a continual expansion, an increasing{ 53} comprehension?
47658Have we, in the new theory of life and knowledge of Bergson''s philosophy, an answer to the question, What is truth?
47658He has defended that philosopher against the arguments of Plato in a polemical pamphlet entitled_ Plato or Protagoras?_( Oxford, Blackwell).
47658He who knows, can not but know; and he who does not know, can not know.... Where, then, is false opinion?
47658How can that which we perceive be something imperceptible?
47658How, then, can universal illusion be consistent with the possession of truth?
47658If the meaning the intellect assigns to truth is itself not true, how can the intellect serve us?
47658If the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted?
47658If the usefulness of the intellect consists in the active production of an illusion, can we say that the intellect leads us to truth?
47658If, then, the understanding works illusion for the sake of action, is it thereby disqualified as an instrument for the attainment of truth?
47658In this way, then, we may answer the perplexing question, How can there be an object of thought in a false judgment?
47658Is a perfectly true idea one in which there exists a point to point correspondence to the reality it represents?
47658Is it not only if we can turn away from the intellect and obtain a non- intellectual intuition that we can know truth?
47658Is not all progress in science made by suggesting a hypothesis, and testing it by experiment to see if it works?
47658Is the Absolute more than an idea?
47658Is there any other verification?
47658It is the asking_ what?_ of every_ that_ of felt experience to which the mind attends.
47658Knowing, then, what reality is, can we say that there is any actual object of thought that conforms to it?
47658May not this be the reason of our failure and the whole explanation of the seeming contradiction?
47658Must we not conclude that knowledge, however useful, is not true?
47658Or does he think of something which he does not know as some other thing which he does not know?"
47658Our problem, then, is to know what constitutes the nature of error in any one of these examples if it is, as each one may be, false?
47658That is the whole meaning of asking, Are they true or false?
47658The fact of error presented a difficulty distinct from the question, What is truth?
47658The pragmatist when he asks, What is truth?
47658The problem of truth is only raised when we ask, What does the agreement of an idea with reality mean?
47658The question What is truth?
47658The_ that_--a simple felt experience-- contains a meaning, brings a message, and we ask_ what_?
47658There is, indeed, if this be so, a deeper irony in the question, What is truth?
47658This is the simple pragmatist test,--does the laboratory worker add to it or find it in any respect insufficient?
47658Was it not true while it was useful, and is it not only now false, if it is false, if it is actually discovered not to be useful?
47658What else but the practical consequences of the truth claim in the form of the hypothesis of an undiscovered planet were ever in question?
47658What is it?
47658What is the nature of the seal by which we stamp this knowledge true?
47658What is true about reality?
47658What kind of knowledge is it that we acquire by description?
47658What, then, is error?
47658What, we shall now ask, can it be that binds together these sense qualities so that we speak of them as a thing?
47658When, then, we ask ourselves, What is truth?
47658Whether the Absolute does or does not exist, is it, either in idea or reality, of any use to us?
47658Why was it felt that they must be other than they were seen to be unless there was another planet?
47658Why were not the observed movements of Uranus accepted as what they were?
47658Will he not fancy that the shadows which he formerly saw are truer than the objects which are now shown to him?...
47658nor even, What is true about truth?
47658was the starting point, and not, What is truth?

55761( 3) When two persons are alone together in a room, how many distinct persons are there?
55761And if not, with what other question must it necessarily be connected?
55761And why are these feelings to be eliminated?
55761Are the actions of men really all of one kind?
55761But are we to trust to good luck, and experiment about until we hit by accident upon the right line?
55761But how about the possibility of social life for men, if each aims only at asserting his own individuality?
55761But how am I to know, prior to all knowledge, that the objects given to me are ideas?
55761But how are we to make the actual calculation?
55761But how else can this happen except we assign a content to the purely formal activity of the Ego?
55761But is it justifiable to lump together actions of this kind with those in which a man is conscious not only of his actions but also of their causes?
55761But is it not possible to make the old a measure for the new?
55761But is this reflection capable of supporting any positive alternative?
55761But what if this"thing- in- itself,"this whole transcendent ground of the world, should be nothing but a fiction?
55761But what of the claim that this view is based on experience?
55761But what of the freedom of an action about the motives of which we reflect?
55761But what right have we to say that in the absence of sense- organs the whole process would not exist at all?
55761But, is not precisely this actually the case with pure concepts and ideas?
55761But, what if they are not valid at all?
55761Can I say of it that it acts on my soul?
55761Can we regard man as a whole in himself, in view of the fact that he grows out of a whole and fits as a member into a whole?
55761Does freedom of will, then, mean being able to will without ground, without motive?
55761Does not the world cause thoughts in the minds of men with the same necessity as it causes the blossoms on plants?
55761Have I, then, any right at all to start from it in my arguments?
55761Have they any intelligible meaning?
55761Have we any right to consider the question of the freedom of the will by itself at all?
55761He asks, How much can we learn about them indirectly, seeing that we can not observe them directly?
55761He can not will what he wills?
55761How comes it that the simple real manifests itself in a two- fold manner, if it is an indivisible unity?
55761How do we come to differentiate ourselves from what is"objective,"and to contrast"Ego"and"Non- Ego?"
55761How does Matter come to think of its own nature?
55761How does the matter appear when we recognise the absoluteness of thought?
55761How is it possible for my thought to be relevantly related to the object?
55761How is it possible to start knowledge anywhere at all?
55761How is it that we are compelled to make these continual corrections in our observations?
55761How should I make of my thought an exception?
55761How should Mind be aware of what goes on in Matter, seeing that the essential nature of Matter is quite alien to Mind?
55761How should it matter to me whether I can do a thing or not, if I am forced by the motive to do it?
55761How, in any case, is it possible for me to argue from my own subjective view of the world to that of another human being?
55761How, then, do I know that he and I are in a common world?
55761I can now ask myself: Over and above the percepts just mentioned, what else is there in the section of space in which they are?
55761If human organisation has no part in the essential nature of thinking, what is its function within the whole nature of man?
55761If the question be asked, What is man''s purpose in life?
55761Is not every man compelled to measure the deliverances of his moral imagination by the standard of traditional moral principles?
55761Is reason able also to strike the balance?
55761Kant assumed their validity and only asks, What are the conditions of their validity?
55761Metaphysical Realism must ask, What is it that gives us our percepts?
55761Or how in these circumstances should Mind act upon Matter, so as to translate its intentions into actions?
55761Our present question is, what do we gain by supplementing a process with a conceptual counterpart?
55761Our questions are the following:( 1) Are things continuous or intermittent in their existence?
55761Philosophers still ask such questions as, What is the purpose of the world?
55761Seeing that, at the outset, we attach no predicates whatever to the Given, we are bound to ask: How is it that we are able to determine it at all?
55761THE THEORY OF FREEDOM I CONSCIOUS HUMAN ACTION Is man free in action and thought, or is he bound by an iron necessity?
55761The fundamental question of Kant''s Theory of Knowledge is, How are synthetic judgments a priori possible?
55761This being so, is any individuality left at all?
55761This last answer does, indeed, presuppose that it is legitimate to group together in the single question,''How many tables?''
55761This leads us to the question, What is the right method for striking the balance between the credit and the debit columns?
55761Two questions arise:( 1) Where are the Given and the Concept differentiated?
55761VII ARE THERE ANY LIMITS TO KNOWLEDGE?
55761What does it mean to have knowledge of the motives of one''s actions?
55761What does it signify for us to possess knowledge and science?
55761What does willing mean if not to have grounds for doing, or striving to do, this rather than that?
55761What else has he done except perceive what hundreds have failed to see?
55761What follows from these facts?
55761What follows from this fact?
55761What follows?
55761What is it that Kant has achieved?
55761What is it that stimulates the subject?
55761What is it that, in the first instance, I have before me when I confront another person?
55761What is the function( and consequently the purpose) of man?
55761What of the Spiritualistic theory?
55761What precisely is it that is absolute in the affirmation of the Ego?
55761What right have you to declare the world to be complete without thought?
55761What then is a percept?
55761When, next, the percept disappears from my field of vision, what remains?
55761Where is the jumping- board which will launch us from the subjective into the trans- subjective?
55761Which of us can say that he is really free in all his actions?
55761Who does not know the pleasure which is caused by the hope of a remote but intensely desired enjoyment?
55761Why do I not passively let the object impress itself on me?
55761Why is it not simply satisfied with itself and content to accept its own existence?
55761Why should this concept belong any less to the whole plant than leaf and blossom?
55761Why, we ask, does the tree appear to us now at rest, then in motion?
55761Yes, but what is it to do?
55761[ 18] Are there any presuppositions in this question, as formulated by Kant?
55761[ 45] Now let us ask ourselves, How do we come by such a view?
55761[ 50] What does Fichte here mean by the activity of the"intelligence,"when we translate what he has obscurely felt into clear concepts?
32701What are space and time? 32701 Whence has it[ i. e. the mind] all the materials of reason and knowledge?
32701''How is pure mathematics possible?
32701''How is pure natural science possible?''
32701''What_ a priori_ judgements are essentially related to the faculty in question?''
32701( 2)''Given that a corresponding object is possible, is it also real?''
32701( 3)''Given that it is real, is it also necessary?''
32701Again, given that the belief has arisen, may it not after all be illusion?
32701Again, if we know that the object of a conception is possible, how are we to determine whether it is also actual?
32701And, secondly, how does thought in virtue of these conceptions originate synthetic_ a priori_ knowledge?
32701Are they real existences?
32701But do_ a priori_ synthetic judgements satisfy this condition?
32701But how are we to know that what we judge_ is_ the true law?
32701But if knowing is obviously different from making, why should Kant have apparently felt no difficulty in resolving knowing into making?
32701But when he is asking''How does the manifold of sense become unified?''
32701But, in that case, what can be meant by a succession in the object?
32701Firstly, how do these conceptions obtain a matter to which they can apply and without which they would be without content or empty?
32701For how can it be possible to base the knowledge of what things are, independently of perception, upon the knowledge of what they look?
32701For how can we advance from knowledge of what they look to knowledge of what they are but do not look?
32701For the driving force of idealism is furnished by the question,''How can the mind and reality come into the relation which we call knowledge?''
32701For the problem''How do we, beginning with mere sensation, come to know a spatial and temporal world?''
32701For the question''Is a three- sided figure possible?''
32701For the two questions, the consideration of which leads to this conclusion, are,''What is the right or real colour of an individual thing?''
32701Further, if it is legitimate to ask,''How can we apprehend what does not belong to our being?''
32701He asks,''How can the subject perceive itself?''
32701He begins by raising the question,''What do we mean by the phrase''an object of representations''?
32701He then asked,''What follows as to the nature of the objects known in mathematics from the fact that we really know them?''
32701Hence the problem arises,''How is it possible to subsume objects of empirical perception under pure conceptions?''
32701Hence the question,''How is pure mathematics possible?''
32701How can I make an assertion about any individual until I have had actual experience of it?
32701How then can I be sure that all cases will conform to my judgement?
32701How, then, does Kant obtain something of which space and time can be regarded as really relations?
32701How, then, does Kant reach the second result?
32701How, then, is it possible for human reason to accomplish such knowledge entirely_ a priori_?...
32701How, then, is it possible for the belief that things_ are_ spatial to arise?
32701If I am asked,''How do I know that my pen is black or my chair hard?''
32701If a question is to be put at all, it should take the form,''How is it possible to apprehend anything?''
32701If, however, the doctrine of an internal sense is obviously untenable from Kant''s own point of view, why does he hold it?
32701In fact, how can I anticipate my experience at all?
32701In the first place, the very question,''What does the process of knowing consist in?''
32701Is there, however, any relation of which it could be said that it is not given, and to which therefore Kant''s doctrine might seem to apply?
32701It may be stated thus:''If the lines are not convergent, how is it possible even to say that they_ look_ convergent?
32701It may, however, be objected that the question ought to mean simply''Is a three- sided figure possible?''
32701It should now be an easy matter to understand the problem expressed by the question,''How are_ a priori_ synthetic judgements possible?''
32701Its aim is to answer the question,''How far can reason go, without the material presented and the aid furnished by experience?''
32701Its definite formulation is expressed in the well- known question,''How are_ a priori_ synthetic judgements possible?
32701Kant introduces it in effect by raising the question,''How is it that, beginning with the isolated data of sense, we come to acquire knowledge?''
32701Kant is therefore once more[23] forced to consider the question''What is meant by object of representations?''
32701Moreover, since it is plain that in knowing we are active, the question is apt to assume the form,''What do we_ do_ when we know or think?''
32701Must it not be implied that at least under_ certain_ circumstances we should perceive the lines as they are?
32701Must there not, however, be some problem peculiar to_ a priori_ judgements?
32701Now why does Kant think that this conclusion follows?
32701Otherwise why should Kant have been led to suppose that his problem concerned them only?
32701Otherwise why should the representations agree?
32701Otherwise, why should we use the words''look''or''appear''at all?
32701Similarly there is really no meaning in the question,''What is meant by an object corresponding to knowledge or to an idea?''
32701The problem then becomes''What renders possible or is presupposed by the conformity of individual things to certain laws of connexion?''
32701The question must mean''What are the kinds of unity produced by judgement?''
32701The question''Is a triangle, in the sense of a figure with three sides and three angles, possible?''
32701The question''Is an object corresponding to the conception of a man with six toes possible?''
32701Thus it turns out that the problem relates to the uniformity of nature, and that the question''How are_ a priori_ synthetic judgements possible?''
32701To the question, therefore,''What is meant by an object corresponding to knowledge and therefore distinct from it?''
32701To the question, therefore,''Why are we justified in saying that we do know phenomena, whereas we do not know the things which produce them?''
32701What then do we know?
32701What then is the answer to this, the real problem?
32701What, then, can be meant by such an object?
32701What, then, is the cause of the unsatisfactory treatment of these problems and men''s consequent indifference?
32701What, then, must be the representation of space, in order that such a knowledge of it may be possible?
32701When he is asking''What is meant by the object( beyond the mind) corresponding to our representations?''
32701Yet why should reality conform?
32701[ 4] Hence, the question,''How is pure natural science possible?''
32701[ 4] This is Kant''s way of putting the question which should be expressed by asking,''Are things spatial, or do they only look spatial?''
32701and''Has it really any colour at all, or does it only look coloured?''
32701and''How does an apprehension become related to an object?
32701and''How is it that they are applicable to objects?''
32701it is equally legitimate to ask,''How can we apprehend what does belong to our own being?''
32701means''Granted the truth of mathematical judgements, what inference can we draw concerning the nature of the reality to which they relate?
32701means''What justifies the assertion that the presuppositions of natural science are true?''
32701really means''Is it possible for a three- sided figure to have three angles?''
32701really means''Is it possible for three straight lines to form a figure, i. e. to enclose a space?''
32701that which concerns sensations?
32701the physical world?''
9662A man who is robbed of a considerable sum; does he find his vexation for the loss anywise diminished by these sublime reflections?
9662And how far it is possible to push these philosophical principles of doubt and uncertainty?
9662And shall we, rather than have a recourse to so natural a solution, allow of a miraculous violation of the most established laws of nature?
9662And under what pretence can you embrace the one, while you reject the other?
9662And what can you say more, allowing all your suppositions and reasonings?
9662And what have we to oppose to such a cloud of witnesses, but the absolute impossibility or miraculous nature of the events, which they relate?
9662And what he proposes by all these curious researches?_ He is immediately at a loss, and knows not what to answer.
9662And what stronger instance can be produced of the surprising ignorance and weakness of the understanding than the present?
9662Are not these methods of reasoning exactly similar?
9662Are such remote and uncertain speculations able to counterbalance the sentiments which arise from the natural and immediate view of the objects?
9662Are the actions of the same person much diversified in the different periods of his life, from infancy to old age?
9662Are the manners of men different in different ages and countries?
9662But do we pretend to be acquainted with the nature of the human soul and the nature of an idea, or the aptitude of the one to produce the other?
9662But if they had any idea of power, as it is in itself, why could not they Measure it in itself?
9662But is this a sufficient reason, why philosophers should desist from such researches, and leave superstition still in possession of her retreat?
9662But still I ask; Why take these attributes for granted, or why ascribe to the cause any qualities but what actually appear in the effect?
9662But what do we mean by that affirmation?
9662But what greater temptation than to appear a missionary, a prophet, an ambassador from heaven?
9662But what is the foundation of this method of reasoning?
9662But when we have pushed up definitions to the most simple ideas, and find still some ambiguity and obscurity; what resource are we then possessed of?
9662But you must confess that the inference is not intuitive; neither is it demonstrative: Of what nature is it, then?
9662By what invention can we throw light upon these ideas, and render them altogether precise and determinate to our intellectual view?
9662By what means has it become so prevalent among our modern metaphysicians?
9662Can I do better than propose the difficulty to the public, even though, perhaps, I have small hopes of obtaining a solution?
9662Can we give any reason for these variations, except experience?
9662Do you disclaim this principle, in order to embrace a more rational opinion, that the perceptions are only representations of something external?
9662Do you follow the instincts and propensities of nature, may they say, in assenting to the veracity of sense?
9662For how much must we diminish from the beauty and value of this species of philosophy, upon such a supposition?
9662For what is meant by liberty, when applied to voluntary actions?
9662For what is meant by_ innate_?
9662For what reason?
9662Has not the same custom the same influence on all?
9662How could_ politics_ be a science, if laws and forms of goverment had not a uniform influence upon society?
9662How is this remedied by experience?
9662How is this to be accounted for?
9662How many more have been celebrated for a time, and have afterwards sunk into neglect and oblivion?
9662How many stories of this nature have, in all ages, been detected and exploded in their infancy?
9662How often would the great names of Pascal, Racine, Amaud, Nicole, have resounded in our ears?
9662How shall we reconcile these contradictions?
9662Is it more difficult to conceive that motion may arise from impulse than that it may arise from volition?
9662Is it not experience, which renders a dog apprehensive of pain, when you menace him, or lift up the whip to beat him?
9662Is it not proper to draw an opposite conclusion, and perceive the necessity of carrying the war into the most secret recesses of the enemy?
9662Is the behaviour and conduct of the one sex very unlike that of the other?
9662Is the idea of power derived from an internal impression and is it an idea of reflection?
9662Is there any more intelligible proposition than to affirm, that all the trees will flourish in December and January, and decay in May and June?
9662May not both these balls remain at absolute rest?
9662May not the first ball return in a straight line, or leap off from the second in any line or direction?
9662On what is this inference based?
9662Or what do you find in this whole question, wherein the security of good morals, or the peace and order of society, is in the least concerned?
9662The hearing of an articulate voice and rational discourse in the dark assures us of the presence of some person: Why?
9662The question still recurs, on what process of argument this_ inference_ is founded?
9662This begets a very natural question; What is meant by a sceptic?
9662This happens sometimes, and with regard to some objects: Why may it not happen always, and with regard to all objects?
9662We need only ask such a sceptic,_ What his meaning is?
9662What logic, what process of argument secures you against this supposition?
9662What though these reasonings concerning human nature seem abstract, and of difficult comprehension?
9662What would become of_ history,_ had we not a dependence on the veracity of the historian according to the experience which we have had of mankind?
9662What, then, is the conclusion of the whole matter?
9662When we run over libraries, persuaded of these principles, what havoc must we make?
9662Whence, I beseech you, do we acquire any idea of it?
9662Whence, do you think, can such philosophers derive their idea of the gods?
9662Where is the medium, the interposing ideas, which join propositions so very wide of each other?
9662Where shall we find such a number of circumstances, agreeing to the corroboration of one fact?
9662Where then is the power, of which we pretend to be conscious?
9662Where, then, is the odiousness of that doctrine, which I teach in my school, or rather, which I examine in my gardens?
9662Wherein, therefore, consists the difference between such a fiction and belief?
9662Who will assert that he can give the ultimate reason, why milk or bread is proper nourishment for a man, not for a lion or a tiger?
9662Who would not encounter many dangers and difficulties, in order to attain so sublime a character?
9662Why has the will an influence over the tongue and fingers, not over the heart or liver?
9662Why then do you refuse to admit the same method of reasoning with regard to the order of nature?
9662Why then should his moral resentment against the crime be supposed incompatible with them?
9662Why then should we give the preference to one, which is no more consistent or conceivable than the rest?
9662Why?
9662Would you know the sentiments, inclinations, and course of life of the Greeks and Romans?
9662_ Does it contain any experimental reasoning concerning matter of fact and existence?_ No.
30737Ah, Miller,he has said,"what matters it how I amuse myself?
30737And do you deem that satisfactory?
30737Brown?
30737But do not they themselves,I asked,"want English?"
30737Did we not think it right,he said,"that there should be evening worship in the family?"
30737Do you know what you are doing, Sir?
30737Had I read Reid?
30737In a word,we find him saying,"do not herbs, plants, roots, grains, and all of this kind that the earth produces and nourishes, come from the sea?
30737Is it true, Hugh,he inquired,"that the lecturer Walsh ridiculed you and your poems in the Council House last night?"
30737Is that man also pitying me?
30737Is this you, L----?
30737It is Click- Clack the carter,said my comrade:"oh, what shall we do?"
30737Jack,exclaimed the old woman, seizing him convulsively by both his hands,"where''s my cousin?--where''s Hugh?"
30737O yes,he said,"but what does that signify?
30737Od, laddie,he said,"what ca''ye this?
30737Oh, and what of that?
30737Oh,he asked, after the first greeting,"have you any salt?"
30737Protection against what?
30737Such is the scene seen at right angles with the plane in which the planets move; but what would be its aspect if I saw it in the line of the plane? 30737 There is mark about that old- fashioned man,"I said to myself:"who or what can he be?"
30737Well, John,I asked one evening, speaking direct, to his evident embarrassment;"what is it?"
30737What ails you?
30737What has happened?
30737What is the matter with you?
30737What poets?
30737What sonnet?
30737What,I inquired of my companion,"are these kind people pitying me so very much for?"
30737Where''s the whisky, Grimbo?
30737Would you not like, Sir,he said, addressing himself to my minister, who sat beside him--"Would you not like to be a sea- gull?
30737_ Hume?_"Yes.
30737''Come, tell me, Donald,''said my brother,''what you think this tree is like?''
30737''What woman, Jack?''
30737A man of high spirit and influence-- a banker, and very much a Whig-- at once addressed me with a stern--"By what authority, Sir?"
30737Against whom does the inscription testify?
30737And have ye mark''d that pillar''d wreath, When sudden struck by northern blast, Amid the low and stunted heath, In broken volumes cast?
30737And how would you answer that?"
30737And such was one of the more special_ Providences_ of my life; for why should I give it a humbler name?
30737And though I knew it might be asked, Why the interposition of a Providence to save_ you_, when he was left to perish?
30737And was it not the great sea, asks the boy, that was so vastly broad, and so profoundly deep?
30737Are his speculations sound, or precarious?
30737Are we eels or puddocks, that we are sent to live in a loch?"
30737Are we to infer that they are shells of more recent origin than the widely- diffused ones?
30737But capacious as the human imagination has been deemed, can it conceive of an area of wider field?
30737But what else could be expected by an ungainly, dust- besprinkled mechanic in his shirt sleeves, and with a leathern apron before him?
30737But what gude o''greevin''as lang''s we are leevin''?
30737But what, it may be asked, was the bearing of all this observation?
30737But would you not better bid adieu to Cromarty, and come along with me?
30737By the way, has he not something very ingenious about miracles?
30737Ca''ye this_ brochan_?"
30737Can Death be nigh, When thus, mute and unarm''d, his vassals lie?
30737Can any cause be assigned why it is not as likely to break out in the nineteenth century as in the fifteenth?"
30737Could I do nothing for my Church in her hour of peril?
30737Could I not do something to bring up the people to their assistance?
30737Could a man in quest of patronage, and actually at the time soliciting a favour, possibly contrive to say anything more imprudent?
30737Could a soul not derived from our first parents be rendered vile simply by being put into a body derived from them?
30737Did the other men take much more than a week to learn?"
30737Do you remember his argument?"
30737Does he float on wind bills, as boys swim on bladders?
30737Dost thou see yon yard sae green, Spreckled wi''mony a mossy stane?
30737For some little time she stood beside me without speaking, and then somewhat abruptly asked,--"What makes_ you_ work as a mason?"
30737Have I not, I asked, crept along a roof of even a steeper slope than that of the shelf?
30737Have ye not seen, from lonesome waste, The smoke- tower rising tall and slow, O''erlooking, like a stately tree, The russet plain below?
30737How can a man get on in the world that wants Gaelic?"
30737How could such a man pass from earth, and leave no trace behind him?
30737How determine the point?
30737How, may I ask, are you yourself provided with the sinews of war?"
30737How, then, have I my conception of the earth as a whole-- of the solar system as a whole-- nay, of many systems as a whole?
30737I had of course to receive a few palmies additional for the speech; but then,"who cared for that?"
30737I know it now: wert thou not placed To catch the eye of him To whom, through glistening tears, earth''s gauds Worthless appear, and dim?
30737I said;"who cares anything for the ridicule of a blockhead?"
30737I was addressed by the recruiting serjeant of a Highland regiment, who asked me if I did not belong to the Aird?
30737I would, of course, lose not only the lever in the torrent, but my trousers also; and how was I ever to get home without them?
30737In stormy autumn day, when sad The boding peasant frets forlorn, Have ye not seen the mountain stream Bear down the standing corn?
30737In what spirit, it has been asked, would Socrates have listened to the address of Paul on Mars Hill, had he lived a few ages later?
30737Is he facile in lending the use of his name?
30737Is his judgment good, or the contrary?
30737Is his sense of monetary obligations nice, or obtuse?
30737Is it not at least natural to think so, since we are certain that all our habitable lands came originally from the sea?
30737Is it not so with genius of a certain altitude?
30737Is there no way of getting a divorce?"
30737Is there to be merely a repetition of the past-- an introduction a second time of"man made in the image of God?"
30737Marge!--What is marge?"
30737My illustration refers exclusively to the native powers; but may it not, I ask, bear also on the acquisition of knowledge?
30737Or shall I put back the hurt altogether till you get home?"
30737Poor bosom, why dost heave Thus wild?
30737See you that large island?
30737The question with him comes always to be a sternly naked one:--Is, or is not, Mr.---- a person fit to be trusted with the bank''s money?
30737The snow- wreath shifting place?
30737Thy way past finding out, Thy love, can tongue declare?
30737What are his resources?--what his liabilities?
30737What are ye aye troubling that decent lad Mr. Stewart for?
30737What is the use of English in Gairloch?"
30737What is to be the next advance?
30737What warms the poet''s lays with generous fire, To which no toil can reach, no art aspire?
30737What would be its appearance if I saw it edgewise?
30737What, think you, could the great Kean make of feeble stuff like that?
30737What,"he adds,"if the sweating sickness, emphatically called the English disease, were to show itself again?
30737Where, in the name of wonder, should I get a kilt to borrow?
30737Who are the brave in freedom''s cause?
30737Who taught the sage, with deepest wisdom fraught, While scarce one pupil grasps the ponderous thought?
30737Who, after once spending even a few hours in such a school, could avoid being a geologist?
30737Why not give her what the length of the chain permitted-- the full range of the room?
30737Why not, in like manner, creep along it to the nest, where there is firm footing?
30737Why smile incred''lous?
30737Why this strange thought?
30737and was it for me, who have so barbarously used thee, that thou hast died?
30737and what sort of a statesman would Robert Burns have made?
30737and will you leave me here to perish?"

30737ejaculated Angus, quickening his trot into a canter;"what does he know about carrying sheep''s heads to the smithy?"
30737he exclaimed;"was the elk a native of Scotland half a century ago?
30737of scenes where Pleasure roves, And Peace, could gentle minstrel tire?
30737or are they merely feebler in their reproductive powers?
30737or is his paper representative of only real business transactions?
30737said the tinker, springing to his feet with an agility wonderful for an age so advanced as his,"Have you drunk it all?
30737the_ Incompetent_?"
30737when passed their brief sojourn-- When Heaven''s dread doom is said-- Beats there the human heart could pour Like mockeries o''er the dead?
30737why hasten on?
53791After what manner therefore do they belong to self, and how are they connected with it?
53791And how can the floor and roof ever meet, while they are separated by the four walls that lie in a contrary position?
53791And how can we justify to ourselves any belief we repose in them?
53791And to what end can it serve, either for the service of mankind, or for my own private interest?
53791And why is it contrary, unless it be more shocking than any delicate satire?
53791Are not most studious men( and many of them more than I) subject to such reveries or fits of absence, without being exposed to such suspicions?
53791But as we here not only_ feign_ but_ believe_ this continued existence, the question is,_ from whence arises such a belief_?
53791But can any thing be imagined more absurd and contradictory than this reasoning?
53791But can we doubt of this agreement in their influence on the judgment, when we consider the nature and effects of_ education_?
53791But farther, what must become of all our particular perceptions upon this hypothesis?
53791But what have I here said, that reflections very refined and metaphysical have little or no influence upon us?
53791But what is the treachery?
53791But what repose can be tasted in life, when the heart is agitated?
53791Can I be sure that, in leaving all established opinions, I am following truth?
53791Can any thing be supposed more extravagant?
53791Can he give any definition of it, that will not be the same with that of causation?
53791Could Mr Hume, after so many instances of disdain on my part, have still the astonishing generosity as to persevere sincerely to serve me?
53791Do you fancy I will grant you a lease for so long a term?
53791Do you therefore mean, that it takes not the points in the same order and by the same rule, as is peculiar and essential to a right line?
53791Does it arise from an impression of sensation or of reflection?
53791Does it attend us at all times, or does it only return at intervals?
53791First, for what reason we pronounce it_ necessary_, that every thing whose existence has a beginning, should also have a cause?
53791For can any one conceive a passion of a yard in length, a foot in breadth, and an inch in thickness?
53791For how can an impression represent a substance, otherwise than by resembling it?
53791For how can the two walls, that run from south to north, touch each other, while they touch the opposite ends of two walls that run from east to west?
53791For how few of our past actions are there, of which we have any memory?
53791For how is it possible we can separate what is not distinguishable, or distinguish what is not different?
53791For if they can not, what possibly can become of them?
53791For what does he mean by_ production_?
53791For what is the memory but a faculty, by which we raise up the images of past perceptions?
53791For whence should it be derived?
53791For why do we blame all gross and injurious language, unless it be, because we esteem it contrary to good breeding and humanity?
53791For why, indeed, should I have any other?
53791For, from what impression could this idea be derived?
53791For, supposing such a conjunction, would the indivisible thought exist on the left or on the right hand of this extended divisible body?
53791From what causes do I derive my existence, and to what condition shall I return?
53791Here, therefore, I must ask,_ What is our idea of a simple and indivisible point_?
53791How can he prove to me, for instance, that two right lines can not have one common segment?
53791How does he know this?
53791How else could any thing exist without length, without breadth, or without depth?
53791How is it possible to make a man easy or happy in a world, to whose customs and maxims he is determined to run retrograde?
53791How then is it possible, that the same substance can at once be modified into that square table, and into this round one?
53791How then shall we adjust those principles together?
53791I first ask mathematicians what they mean when they say one line or surface is_ equal_ to, or_ greater_, or_ less_ than another?
53791I have declared my disapprobation of their systems; and can I be surprised if they should express a hatred of mine and of my person?
53791I therefore ask, wherein consists the difference betwixt believing and disbelieving any proposition?
53791If at intervals, at what times principally does it return, and by what causes is it produced?
53791If it be conveyed to us by our senses, I ask, which of them, and after what manner?
53791Is it an impression of sensation or reflection?
53791Is it in every part without being extended?
53791Is it in this particular part, or in that other?
53791Is it pleasant, or painful, or indifferent?
53791Is it therefore nothing?
53791Is the indivisible subject or immaterial substance, if you will, on the left or on the right hand of the perception?
53791Now I ask, what idea do we form of these bodies or objects to which we suppose solidity to belong?
53791Now''tis certain we have an idea of extension; for otherwise, why do we talk and reason concerning it?
53791Now, what idea have we of these bodies?
53791Now, what impression do our senses here convey to us?
53791Now, what is our idea of the moving body, without which motion is incomprehensible?
53791Numquid quæ consecravimus perdidisse nos dicimus?
53791On the back or fore- side of it?
53791On the supposition of my entering into a project to ruin him, how could I think to bring it about by the services I did him?
53791On the surface or in the middle?
53791Or if these colours unite into one, what new colour will they produce by their union?
53791Or is it entire in any one part without deserting the rest?
53791Or that''tis impossible to draw more than one right line betwixt any two points?
53791Pray, who knows when my door was open or shut, except Mr Hume, with whom I lived, and by whom every body was introduced that I saw?
53791Shall the despair of success make me assert, that I am here possessed of an idea, which is not preceded by any similar impression?
53791Shall we then rest contented with these two relations of contiguity and succession, as affording a complete idea of causation?
53791Shall we, then, establish it for a general maxim, that no refined or elaborate reasoning is ever to be received?
53791The next question, then, should naturally be,_ how experience gives rise to such a principle_?
53791Under what obligation do I lie of making such an abuse of time?
53791We may well ask,_ What causes induce us to believe in the existence of body_?
53791What beings surround me?
53791What can he have said to them, for it is only through him they know any thing of me?
53791What could I divine would be the consequence of such a beginning?
53791What do they know of me, except that I am unhappy, and a friend to their friend Hume?
53791What harm have I done, or could I do to Mr Rousseau?
53791What have I done to Mr Walpole, whom I know full as little?
53791What party, then, shall we choose among these difficulties?
53791What then can we look for from this confusion of groundless and extraordinary opinions but error and falsehood?
53791What then is meant by a distinction of reason, since it implies neither a difference nor separation?
53791What was his design in it?
53791Where am I, or what?
53791Where did he see them?
53791Whether shall the red or the blue be annihilated?
53791Which of them shall we prefer?
53791Who could have excited their enmity against me?
53791Whose favour shall I court, and whose anger must I dread?
53791Why are those enemies all the friends of Mr Hume?
53791Why should I have even them?
53791[ 34] What have I done to Lord Littleton,[35] whom I do n''t even know?
53791[ 34] Why indeed?
53791[ 38] How was it possible for me to guess at such chimerical suspicions?
53791_ What is our idea of necessity, when we say that two objects are necessarily connected together_?
53791and by what criterion shall I distinguish her, even if fortune should at last guide me on her footsteps?
53791and on whom have I any influence, or who have any influence on me?
53791but''tis in vain to ask,_ Whether there be body or not_?
53791did this good man borrow those eyes he fixes so sternly and unaccountably on those of his friends?
1580), said he; did I ever acknowledge that those who do the business of others are temperate?
1580Admitting this view, I ask of you, what good work, worthy of the name wise, does temperance or wisdom, which is the science of itself, effect?
1580And are not we looking and seeking after something more than is to be found in her?
1580And are they temperate, seeing that they make not for themselves or their own business only?
1580And are you about to use violence, without even going through the forms of justice?
1580And can that be good which does not make men good?
1580And do they make or do their own business only, or that of others also?
1580And does not he who does his duty act temperately or wisely?
1580And he who does so does his duty?
1580And he who judges rightly will judge of the physician as a physician in what relates to these?
1580And he who would enquire into the nature of medicine must pursue the enquiry into health and disease, and not into what is extraneous?
1580And in all that concerns either body or soul, swiftness and activity are clearly better than slowness and quietness?
1580And in leaping and running and in bodily exercises generally, quickness and agility are good; slowness, and inactivity, and quietness, are bad?
1580And in playing the lyre, or wrestling, quickness or sharpness are far better than quietness and slowness?
1580And is it not better to teach another quickly and energetically, rather than quietly and slowly?
1580And is not shrewdness a quickness or cleverness of the soul, and not a quietness?
1580And is temperance a good?
1580And medicine is distinguished from other sciences as having the subject- matter of health and disease?
1580And that knowledge which is nearest of all, I said, is the knowledge of what?
1580And the inference is that temperance can not be modesty-- if temperance is a good, and if modesty is as much an evil as a good?
1580And the odd and even numbers are not the same with the art of computation?
1580And the same holds in boxing and in the pancratium?
1580And the temperate are also good?
1580And they are right, and you would agree with them?
1580And to read quickly or slowly?
1580And was there anything meddling or intemperate in this?
1580And what if I am?
1580And what is it?
1580And what is the meaning of a man doing his own business?
1580And which is better, to call to mind, and to remember, quickly and readily, or quietly and slowly?
1580And which, I said, is better-- facility in learning, or difficulty in learning?
1580And why, he replied, will not wisdom be of use?
1580And will wisdom give health?
1580And yet if reading and writing are the same as doing, you were doing what was not your own business?
1580And yet were you not saying, just now, that craftsmen might be temperate in doing another''s work, as well as in doing their own?
1580And you would infer that temperance is not only noble, but also good?
1580Are not these, my friend, the real advantages which are to be gained from wisdom?
1580Are you right, Charmides?
1580But all sciences have a subject: number is the subject of arithmetic, health of medicine-- what is the subject of temperance or wisdom?
1580But can any one attain the knowledge of either unless he have a knowledge of medicine?
1580But even if knowledge can know itself, how does the knowledge of what we know imply the knowledge of what we do not know?
1580But is knowledge or want of knowledge of health the same as knowledge or want of knowledge of justice?
1580But must the physician necessarily know when his treatment is likely to prove beneficial, and when not?
1580But of what is this knowledge?
1580But surely we are assuming a science of this kind, which, having no subject- matter, is a science of itself and of the other sciences?
1580But temperance, whose presence makes men only good, and not bad, is always good?
1580But then what profit, Critias, I said, is there any longer in wisdom or temperance which yet remains, if this is wisdom?
1580But what matter, said Charmides, from whom I heard this?
1580But where does Dr. Jackson find any such notion as this in Plato or anywhere in ancient philosophy?
1580But which is best when you are at the writing- master''s, to write the same letters quickly or quietly?
1580But which most tends to make him happy?
1580But why do you not call him, and show him to us?
1580Can you show me any such result of them?
1580Can you tell me?
1580Chaerephon called me and said: What do you think of him, Socrates?
1580Could there be any desire which is not the desire of any pleasure, but of itself, and of all other desires?
1580Did you ever observe that this is what they say?
1580Do you admit that?
1580Do you mean a knowledge of shoemaking?
1580Do you mean that this doing or making, or whatever is the word which you would use, of good actions, is temperance?
1580For is not the discovery of things as they truly are, a good common to all mankind?
1580For why should Aristotle, because he has quoted several Dialogues of Plato, have quoted them all?
1580Has he not a beautiful face?
1580Have we not long ago asseverated that wisdom is only the knowledge of knowledge and of ignorance, and of nothing else?
1580He will consider whether what he says is true, and whether what he does is right, in relation to health and disease?
1580How can you think that I have any other motive in refuting you but what I should have in examining into myself?
1580How is that?
1580How is this riddle to be explained?
1580How so?
1580How then can wisdom be advantageous, when giving no advantage?
1580How will wisdom, regarded only as a knowledge of knowledge or science of science, ever teach him that he knows health, or that he knows building?
1580I asked; do you mean to say that doing and making are not the same?
1580I have no particular drift, but I wish that you would tell me whether a physician who cures a patient may do good to himself and good to another also?
1580I said, or without my consent?
1580I said; is not this rather the effect of medicine?
1580I was, he replied; but what is your drift?
1580In order, then, that I may form a conjecture whether you have temperance abiding in you or not, tell me, I said, what, in your opinion, is Temperance?
1580Is it of him you are speaking or of some one else?
1580Is not medicine, I said, the science of health?
1580Is not that true?
1580Is not that true?
1580Is not that true?
1580Is that true?
1580Is the scribe, for example, to be regarded as doing nothing when he reads or writes?
1580Just as that which is greater is of a nature to be greater than something else?
1580Let us consider the matter in this way: If the wise man or any other man wants to distinguish the true physician from the false, how will he proceed?
1580May I infer this to be the knowledge of the game of draughts?
1580Now, I want to know, what is that which is not wisdom, and of which wisdom is the science?
1580Or can you imagine a wish which wishes for no good, but only for itself and all other wishes?
1580Or did you ever know of a fear which fears itself or other fears, but has no object of fear?
1580Or does wisdom do the work of any of the other arts,--do they not each of them do their own work?
1580Or if there be a double which is double of itself and of other doubles, these will be halves; for the double is relative to the half?
1580Or in wool, or wood, or anything of that sort?
1580Or is there a kind of hearing which hears no sound at all, but only itself and other sorts of hearing, or the defects of them?
1580Or of an opinion which is an opinion of itself and of other opinions, and which has no opinion on the subjects of opinion in general?
1580Or of computation?
1580Or of health?
1580Or of working in brass?
1580Or would you say that there is a love which is not the love of beauty, but of itself and of other loves?
1580Please, therefore, to inform me whether you admit the truth of what Critias has been saying;--have you or have you not this quality of temperance?
1580Shall I tell you the nature of the difficulty?
1580Shall I tell you, Socrates, why I say all this?
1580Shall we speak of the soul and its qualities, of virtue, power, wisdom, and the like, as feminine or neuter?
1580That is your meaning?
1580The beautiful youth, Charmides, who is also the most temperate of human beings, is asked by Socrates,''What is Temperance?''
1580Then I suppose that modesty is and is not good?
1580Then he who is ignorant of these things will only know that he knows, but not what he knows?
1580Then how will this knowledge or science teach him to know what he knows?
1580Then not he who does evil, but he who does good, is temperate?
1580Then temperance, I said, will not be doing one''s own business; not at least in this way, or doing things of this sort?
1580Then, I said, in all bodily actions, not quietness, but the greatest agility and quickness, is noblest and best?
1580Then, as would seem, in doing good, he may act wisely or temperately, and be wise or temperate, but not know his own wisdom or temperance?
1580Then, before we see his body, should we not ask him to show us his soul, naked and undisguised?
1580Then, in reference to the body, not quietness, but quickness will be the higher degree of temperance, if temperance is a good?
1580Think over all this, and, like a brave youth, tell me-- What is temperance?
1580Very good, I said; and are you quite sure that you know my name?
1580Very good, I said; and did you not admit, just now, that temperance is noble?
1580Very good, I said; and now let me repeat my question-- Do you admit, as I was just now saying, that all craftsmen make or do something?
1580Was he a fool who told you, Charmides?
1580Was he right who affirmed that?
1580Was not that your statement?
1580Was not this, Critias, what we spoke of as the great advantage of wisdom-- to know what is known and what is unknown to us?
1580Well then, this science of which we are speaking is a science of something, and is of a nature to be a science of something?
1580Well, I said; but surely you would agree with Homer when he says,''Modesty is not good for a needy man''?
1580Were we not right in making that admission?
1580What do you mean?
1580What do you mean?
1580What is that?
1580What makes you think so?
1580Which is less, if the other is conceived to be greater?
1580Who is he, I said; and who is his father?
1580Why not, I said; but will he come?
1580Why not?
1580With my consent?
1580Yes, I said; and facility in learning is learning quickly, and difficulty in learning is learning quietly and slowly?
1580Yet I should like to know one thing more: which of the different kinds of knowledge makes him happy?
1580You sirs, I said, what are you conspiring about?
1580and in what cases do you mean?
1580or do all equally make him happy?
1580or must the craftsman necessarily know when he is likely to be benefited, and when not to be benefited, by the work which he is doing?
1580the knowledge of what past, present, or future thing?
10615And are there not places where, at a certain age, they kill or expose their parents, without any remorse at all?
10615And are they those which are the first in children, and antecedent to all acquired ones?
10615And if they can thus make three distinct ideas of substance, what hinders why another may not make a fourth?
10615And sensible qualities, as colours and smells,& c. what are they but the powers of different bodies, in relation to our perception,& c.?
10615And were not he that proposed it bound to make out the truth and reasonableness of it to him?
10615And what can hinder him from thinking them sacred, when he finds them the earliest of all his own thoughts, and the most reverenced by others?
10615And what doubt can there be made of it?
10615And what is the will, but the faculty to do this?
10615And when we find it there, how much more does it resemble the opinion and notion of the teacher, than represent the true God?
10615And whether one of them might not be very happy, and the other very miserable?
10615And whether, in the second case, there would not be one person in two distinct bodies, as much as one man is the same in two distinct clothings?
10615And which then shall be true?
10615And, if considered in the things themselves, do they not depend on the bulk, figure, texture, and motion of the parts?
10615Are they such as all mankind have, and bring into the world with them?
10615But alas, amongst children, idiots, savages, and the grossly illiterate, what general maxims are to be found?
10615But can any one think, or will any one say, that “ impossibility ” and “ identity ” are two innate IDEAS?
10615But how late is it before any such notion is discoverable in children?
10615But if a Hobbist be asked why?
10615But is not a man drunk and sober the same person?
10615But my question is,--whether one can not have the IDEA of one body moved, whilst others are at rest?
10615But perhaps it will be said,--without a regular motion, such as of the sun, or some other, how could it ever be known that such periods were equal?
10615But the question being here,--Whether the idea of space or extension be the same with the idea of body?
10615But then to what end such contest for certain innate maxims?
10615But will any one say, that those that live by fraud or rapine have innate principles of truth and justice which they allow and assent to?
10615Can another man perceive that I am conscious of anything, when I perceive it not myself?
10615Can he be concerned in either of their actions?
10615Can the soul think, and not the man?
10615Concerning a man ’s liberty, there yet, therefore, is raised this further question, WHETHER A MAN BE FREE TO WILL?
10615Do we not every moment experiment it in ourselves, and therefore can it be doubted?
10615Do we not see( will they be ready to say) the parts of bodies stick firmly together?
10615For example, what is a watch?
10615For how can we think any one freer, than to have the power to do what he will?
10615For if they are not notions naturally imprinted, how can they be innate?
10615For though a man would prefer flying to walking, yet who can say he ever wills it?
10615For, it being asked, what it was that digested the meat in our stomachs?
10615For, our ideas of extension, duration, and number, do they not all contain in them a secret relation of the parts?
10615For, who is it that sees not that powers belong only to agents, and are attributes only of substances, and not of powers themselves?
10615Hath a child an idea of impossibility and identity, before it has of white or black, sweet or bitter?
10615How else could any one make it an inference of mine, that a thing is not, because we are not sensible of it in our sleep?
10615How knows any one that the Soul always thinks?
10615How uncertain and imperfect would our ideas be of an ellipsis, if we had no other idea of it, but some few of its properties?
10615I ask those who say they have a positive idea of eternity, whether their idea of duration includes in it succession, or not?
10615I ask whether any one can say this man had then any ideas of colours in his mind, any more than one born blind?
10615I ask, is not this stay voluntary?
10615If it be further asked,--What it is moves desire?
10615If they say that a man is always conscious to himself of thinking, I ask, How they know it?
10615If this answer satisfies not, it is plain the meaning of the question, What determines the will?
10615Is it worth the name of freedom to be at liberty to play the fool, and draw shame and misery upon a man ’s self?
10615Is there anything more common?
10615Let custom from the very childhood have joined figure and shape to the idea of God, and what absurdities will that mind be liable to about the Deity?
10615Let us then suppose the mind to be, as we say, white paper, void of all characters, without any ideas:--How comes it to be furnished?
10615May he not, with more reason, assure him he was not asleep?
10615Must it not be a most manifest wrong judgment that does not presently see to which side, in this case, the preference is to be given?
10615Nay, whether the cock too, which had the same soul, were not the same, with both of them?
10615Or a man think, and not be conscious of it?
10615Or are there two different ideas of identity, both innate?
10615Or does the mind regulate itself and its assent by ideas that it never yet had?
10615Or doth the proposing them print them clearer in the mind than nature did?
10615Or rather, would he not have reason to think that my design was to make sport with him, rather than seriously to instruct him?
10615Or that the child has any notion or apprehension of that proposition at an age, wherein yet, it is plain, it knows a great many other truths?
10615Or the understanding draw conclusions from principles which it never yet knew or understood?
10615Or where is that universal consent that assures us there are such inbred rules?
10615POWER being the source from whence all action proceeds, the substances wherein these powers are, when they*[ lost line??]
10615POWER being the source from whence all action proceeds, the substances wherein these powers are, when they*[ lost line??]
10615The question then is, Which of these are real, and which barely imaginary combinations?
10615To return, then, to the inquiry, what is it that determines the will in regard to our actions?
10615WHETHER MAN ’S WILL BE FREE OR NO?
10615What collections agree to the reality of things, and what not?
10615What good would sight and hearing do to a creature that can not move itself to or from the objects wherein at a distance it perceives good or evil?
10615What is it, then, that makes it be thought confused, since the want of symmetry does not?
10615What makes the same man?
10615What moved?
10615What real alteration can the beating of the pestle make in an body, but an alteration of the texture of it?
10615What true or tolerable notion of a Deity could they have, who acknowledged and worshipped hundreds?
10615What was it that made anything come out of the body?
10615Whence comes it by that vast store which the busy and boundless fancy of man has painted on it with an almost endless variety?
10615Whence has it all the MATERIALS of reason and knowledge?
10615Where is that practical truth that is universally received, without doubt or question, as it must be if innate?
10615Where then are those innate principles of justice, piety, gratitude, equity, chastity?
10615Whether Euphorbus and Pythagoras, having had the same soul, were the same men, though they lived several ages asunder?
10615Which innate?
10615Who in his wits would choose to come within a possibility of infinite misery; which if he miss, there is yet nothing to be got by that hazard?
10615Would he not think himself mocked, instead of taught, with such an account as this?
10615Would he thereby be enabled to understand what a fibre was better than he did before?
10615and if they are notions imprinted, how can they be unknown?
10615attribute them to himself, or think them his own more than the actions of any other men that ever existed?
10615is this,--What moves the mind, in every particular instance, to determine its general power of directing, to this or that particular motion or rest?
10615number, whose stock is inexhaustible and truly infinite: and what a large and immense field doth extension alone afford the mathematicians?
10615what universal principles of knowledge?
10615why else is he punished for the fact he commits when drunk, though he be never afterwards conscious of it?
39964And where were the others?
39964Has the plant a soul? 39964 When a woman is strong, is n''t she strong after the same conception and the same strength?
39964And do you not interchange the portrait for the person itself, without difficulty and misunderstanding?
39964And how can any single brain assume to acquire all knowledge, to know everything?
39964And how is a fact proven?
39964And on the other hand, does not the promotion of our material interests require a penetration on our part of the wonders of creation?
39964Are not these the concrete content of our material interests?
39964Are there any stones that do not belong to the category of stones, or any kind of wood which is iron?
39964Are they not simply substitutes?
39964At best, will you not merely repeat what has long since been accomplished?
39964Before, at, or after birth?
39964But do not beasts, worms, and sensitive plants have that also?
39964But how do I know what I state in such an offhand manner?
39964But how is life infused into them?
39964But how is that to be found?
39964But how to explain that wonderful_ a priori_ knowledge which exceeds all experience?
39964But is n''t it a contradiction that a special science wants to be general world wisdom?
39964But is there anything which is absolutely good?
39964But look here, has it not always been so?
39964But the study of the anatomy of the hand can no more solve the question: What is writing?
39964But was it founded on fact?
39964But what about the question of the beginning and end of the world, or the question of the existence of God?
39964But what else does the term material interests mean but the abstract expression of our existence, welfare, and development?
39964But what good will it do a painter to have his special attention called to this fact?
39964But what is there of unity that science teaches about them?
39964But what thing is there that has any effects"in itself?"
39964But where shall we draw the line in this comparison of images?
39964But who claims that there are not many straight lines which are crooked at one end, which run straight on for a certain distance and then turn?
39964But why do we call this the most essential part?
39964By the help of brown- study from the interior of our brain, from revelation, or from experience?
39964Can natural science do as much?
39964Can the world be understood in a hermitage?
39964Can we see the things themselves?
39964Can we, by mere deduction through concepts which go beyond experience, arrive at truths?
39964Could there not be some dogs who lacked the quality of watchfulness, and might not our pug- dog be very unreliable, in spite of all exact deductions?
39964Do animals arise when the hot and the cold begin to disintegrate, as some claim?
39964Do you not ask on seeing the portrait of some person unknown to you: Who is this?
39964Does he not say explicitly that the penetration of the wonders of creation promotes our material interests?
39964Does not this appear reasonable to you?...
39964Does that require any explanation?
39964Everything develops, why should not our intellects do so?
39964For are not the effects tangible by which reason transforms nature and life?
39964Has proud philosophy gained nothing since?
39964Has the earth a soul?
39964Have I now still to prove that all existence is of the same category?
39964Have not your thoughts been connected always and everywhere with some worldly or real object?
39964Have they a soul analogous to that of man?
39964Have you ever seen a portrait or a copy that did not agree in some respect with the original?
39964How are we to designate the species, how the genus?
39964How can a man who is out of touch with the mass of the shifting population feel that he is one with the universe?
39964How can thinkers who search for truth, being, relative causes, such as naturalists, be idealists?
39964How can we see everything?
39964How do we arrive at the knowledge of things which are not accessible to experience?
39964How do we know that?
39964How do we prove that a peach is a delicious fruit?
39964How do we solve this contradiction?
39964How is understanding possible?
39964I remember reading in a satirical paper the question:"What is a gentleman?
39964If the ancient Germans regarded the great oak as sacred and religious, why should not art and science become religious among the modern Germans?
39964If the function of the heart may be referred to as material, why not the function of the brain?
39964In certain shows, the clown is asked by the manager:"Clown, where have you been?"
39964In seeking for an answer to the question: What is philosophy?
39964In what respect are our material interests different from our mental penetration of things?
39964Is it an idea?
39964Is it not necessary, however, to make a distinction between poetry and truth?
39964Is it the blood, which enables us to think, or the air or the fire?
39964Is not everything a part, is not every part a thing?
39964Is not general wisdom that which comprises all knowledge, all special science?
39964Is not the air or the scent of flowers an ethereal body?
39964Is not the material world and its understanding as essential as reason, as intellect, which bends to the task of exploring this world?
39964Is the color of a leaf less of a thing than that leaf itself?
39964Is the world a concept?
39964Is this world- god a mere idea?
39964It is the solution of the riddle of the ancient Eleatic philosophy: How can the one be contained in the many, and the many in one?
39964It was the famous Kant who posed the question:"How is_ a priori_ knowledge possible?"
39964May not our modern viewpoint, the category in which our present day science thinks, the category of cause and effect, be equally transitory?
39964Mind and Matter: Which Is Primary, Which Is Secondary?
39964Multiplicity, change, motion-- who is to split hairs about them, who will make fine distinctions?
39964Must I not know everything in order to be world wise?
39964Must I prove this?
39964Now I ask: If nature, God, and absolute truth are one and the same thing, have we not learned something about the"final cause of all things?"
39964Now you are familiar with that student''s song:"What''s Coming from the Heights?"
39964Now, is this logic or is it theology?
39964Or are you spiritualists who make a metaphysical distinction between the truth and the phenomenon?
39964Or does it belong to the infinite and must it exist forever?
39964Otherwise, how could misunderstandings arise?
39964Our logic asks: Does wisdom descend mysteriously from the interior of the human brain, or does it come from the outer world like all experience?
39964Scientists as well as scribes have ever embarrassed one another by the question: What is truth?
39964Shall it be an idol or a king?
39964Shall we use the intellect philosophically, or shall we use it empirically?
39964Should not religion, which according to the words of a German emperor"must be preserved for the people,"also have its bounds in history?
39964Should not that appear mysterious to it?
39964Socrates in the market of Athens, and Plato in his dialogues, have probably said better things about the questions:"What is virtue?
39964The fetish cult, the animal cult, the cult of the ideal and spiritual creator, or the cult of the real human mind?
39964The great Kant has asked the plain question:"Is metaphysics practicable as a science?"
39964The human understanding has its limits, why should it not?
39964The next question is then: By what road do we arrive at its understanding?
39964The philosophical celebrities and classic authorities are not even in accord on the question: What is philosophy and what is its aim?
39964The question then arises: Which is the genuine and true division?
39964The statements: I do, I work, I think, must be completed by an answer to the question: What are you doing, working, thinking?
39964Thereupon Cebes asks:"Well, and what do you think of this now?"
39964This book, its leaves, its letters, or their parts, are they units?
39964Those sciences recognize only the phenomena of things; but where is the understanding which perceives the truth?"
39964To analyze this idea means to solve the question, what is walking generally considered, what is the general nature of walking?
39964What are all things?
39964What can be more evident?
39964What constitutes, then, this body which is distinguished from its transient form?
39964What do I know about the shoe industry, if I know that it produces shoes?
39964What good are all the treasures of Croesus, if health is lacking?
39964What good is health to us, when we have nothing to bite?
39964What is a"thing?"
39964What is it that Lessing says?
39964What is its beginning, what its end?
39964What is its positive achievement?
39964What is justice?
39964What is justice?
39964What is meant by political freedom?
39964What is moral and reasonable?"
39964What is not an image in the abstract, and what is more than an image in the concrete?
39964What is the reason for this?
39964What is the relation of the concrete to the abstract?
39964What is the use of metaphysics under these circumstances?
39964What would become of reason and language, if such a thing were to be considered?
39964What, then, is religion and religious?
39964Whence comes reason, where do we get our ideas, judgments, conclusions?
39964Where and how are we to find a positive and definite knowledge of it?
39964Where are we to begin and where to end?
39964Where do I begin, where do I stop?
39964Where do we find any indivisible unit outside of our abstract conceptions?
39964Where do we find such eternal, imperishable, formless matter?
39964Where does consciousness begin in the child?
39964Where does the variety of science, its undecided vacillation end, and when does understanding become stable?
39964Where is the consistent connection?
39964Where, then, is the beginning and end, and how can we bring order into these relations?
39964Where, who, what, is the supreme being to which everything else is subordinate, which brings system, consistency, logic, into our thought and actions?
39964Who and what are now the objects of philosophy?
39964Who has not heard the lament about the unreliability of the senses?
39964Who or what is the intellect, whence does it come from, whither does it lead?
39964Who will define to us what a line is?
39964Who will deny that he can feel the force of heat, of cold, of gravitation?
39964Who would be silly enough to deny that?
39964Why do you want to be a theist, if you are a naturalist, or a naturalist if you are a theist?
39964Why is not the"naturalistic"philosopher consistent by recognizing his special object, understanding, as a natural object?
39964Why should not the action of the brain belong in the same category as the action of the heart?
39964Why, then, speculate about God, freedom, and immortality, when indubitable knowledge may be obtained by the formal method of exact deductions?
39964Would any one try to make us believe that there is a great and almighty eye that can look through blocks of metal the same as through glass?
39964XII MIND AND MATTER: WHICH IS PRIMARY, WHICH SECONDARY?
39964You know the old question: Which was first, the egg or the hen?
39964You will probably ask: What has that to do with logic or the art of reasoning?
39964than the physiological study of the brain can bring us nearer to the solution of the question: What is thought?

10616I ask, whether the complex idea in Adam''s mind, which he called KINNEAH, were adequate or not?
10616I think, I reason, I feel pleasure and pain: can any of these be more evident to me than my own existence?
10616I. I would ask them, whether they imagine that all matter, EVERY PARTICLE OF MATTER, thinks?
10616If all matter does not think, I next ask, Whether it be ONLY ONE ATOM that does so?
10616If it be asked whether these be all men or no, all of human species?
10616If men should do so in their reckonings, I wonder who would have to do with them?
10616If not, what reason will there be shown more for the one than the other?

10616Shall a defect in the body make a monster; a defect in the mind( the far more noble, and, in the common phrase, the far more essential part) not?
10616Shall the want of a nose, or a neck, make a monster, and put such issue out of the rank of men; the want of reason and understanding, not?

10616What more is contained in that maxim, than what the signification of the word TOTUM, or the WHOLE, does of itself import?

4705A merchant is desirous of knowing the sum total of his accounts with any person: Why?
4705After what manner, therefore, do they belong to self; and how are they connected with it?
4705An action, or sentiment, or character is virtuous or vicious; why?
4705And how can the floor and roof ever meet, while they are separated by the four walls, that lie in a contrary position?
4705And how can we justify to ourselves any belief we repose in them?
4705And how distinguish that exactly from a probability?
4705And if they were founded on original instincts, coued they have any greater stability?
4705And to what end can it serve either for the service of mankind, or for my own private interest?
4705And what creature departs more widely, not only from right reason, but from his own character and disposition?
4705And why is it contrary, unless it be more shocking than any delicate satire?
4705And, Whether this feeling be any thing but a firmer conception, or a faster hold, that we take of the object?
4705Are the changes of our body from infancy to old age more regular and certain than those of our mind and conduct?
4705Are they therefore, upon that account, immoral?
4705But after what manner does it give pleasure?
4705But can anything be imagined more absurd and contradictory than this reasoning?
4705But can there be any difficulty in proving, that vice and virtue are not matters of fact, whose existence we can infer by reason?
4705But can we doubt of this agreement in their influence on the judgment, when we consider the nature and effects Of EDUCATION?
4705But farther, what must become of all our particular perceptions upon this hypothesis?
4705But in what manner?
4705But is property, or right, or obligation, intelligible, without an antecedent morality?
4705But may not the sense of morality or duty produce an action, without any other motive?
4705But shall we say upon that account, that the wine is harmonious, or the music of a good flavour?
4705But then I ask, if the removal of design be able entirely to remove the passion of love and hatred?
4705But what do we mean by impossible?
4705But what have I here said, that reflections very refined and metaphysical have little or no influence upon us?
4705But what makes the end agreeable?
4705But what passion?
4705But who will assert, that this is the only foundation of justice?
4705Can he give any definition of it, that will not be the same with that of causation?
4705Do the children arise from this copulation more uniformly, than does the parents care for their safety and preservation?
4705Do you conceive any thing but merely that perception?
4705Do you therefore mean that it takes not the points in the same order and by the same rule, as is peculiar and essential to a right line?
4705Does it arise from an impression of sensation or of reflection?
4705Does it discover a relation or a matter of fact?
4705For can any one conceive a passion of a yard in length, a foot in breadth, and an inch in thickness?
4705For from what impression coued this idea be derived?
4705For how can an impression represent a substance, otherwise than by resembling it?
4705For how few of our past actions are there, of which we have any memory?
4705For how is it possible we can separate what is not distinguishable, or distinguish what is not different?
4705For if they can not, what possibly can become of them?
4705For is it more certain, that two flat pieces of marble will unite together, than that two young savages of different sexes will copulate?
4705For supposing such a conjunction, would the indivisible thought exist on the left or on the right hand of this extended divisible body?
4705For what does he mean by production?
4705For what does reason discover, when it pronounces any action vicious?
4705For what if he be my enemy, and has given me just cause to hate him?
4705For what is more capricious than human actions?
4705For what is the memory but a faculty, by which we raise up the images of past perceptions?
4705For what reason?
4705For whence should it be derived?
4705For why do we blame all gross and injurious language, unless it be, because we esteem it contrary to good breeding and humanity?
4705For, who ever thought of forbearing any action, because others might possibly draw false conclusions from it?
4705From what causes do I derive my existence, and to what condition shall I return?
4705From whence does this proceed, but that the memory in the first case assists the fancy and gives an additional force and vigour to its conceptions?
4705Have you any notion of self or substance?
4705Here therefore I must ask, What is our idea of a simple and indivisible point?
4705How can he prove to me, for instance, that two right lines can not have one common segment?
4705How do we separate this impossibility from an improbability?
4705How else coued any thing exist without length, without breadth, or without depth?
4705How is it possible they coued ever become objects of pride, except by means of that transition above- explained?
4705How is this to be accounted for?
4705How much more when aided by that circumstance?
4705How then is it possible, that the same substance can at once be modifyed into that square table, and into this round one?
4705How then shall we adjust those principles together?
4705I Does it attend us at all times, or does it only return at intervals?
4705I JUSTICE, WHETHER A NATURAL OR ARTIFICIAL VIRTUE?
4705I JUSTICE, WHETHER A NATURAL OR ARTIFICIAL VIRTUE?
4705I first ask mathematicians, what they mean when they say one line or surface is EQUAL to, or GREATER or LESS than another?
4705I have declared my disapprobation of their systems; and can I be surprized, if they should express a hatred of mine and of my person?
4705I therefore ask, Wherein consists the difference betwixt believing and disbelieving any proposition?
4705If at intervals, at what times principally does it return, and by what causes is it produced?
4705If it be conveyed to us by our senses, I ask, which of them; and after what manner?
4705If it be, how can that question have place, concerning the subsistence of self, under a change of substance?
4705If they be distinct, what is the difference betwixt them?
4705Is it an impression of sensation or of reflection?
4705Is it because it is his duty to be grateful?
4705Is it in every part without being extended?
4705Is it in this particular part, or in that other?
4705Is it pleasant, or painful, or indifferent?
4705Is it therefore nothing?
4705Is self the same with substance?
4705Is the indivisible subject, or immaterial substance, if you will, on the left or on the right hand of the perception?
4705Now I ask, what idea do we form of these bodies or objects, to which we suppose solidity to belong?
4705Now after what manner are they related to ourselves?
4705Now it is certain we have an idea of extension; for otherwise why do we talk and reason concerning it?
4705Now the question is, after what manner this utility and importance operate upon us?
4705Now what idea have we of these bodies?
4705Now what impression do oar senses here convey to us?
4705Now what is our idea of the moving body, without which motion is incomprehensible?
4705On the back or fore side of it?
4705On the surface or in the middle?
4705Or if it be possible to imagine, that such errors are the sources of all immorality?
4705Or if it were, is an exception to a general rule in every case criminal, for no other reason than because it is an exception?
4705Or if these colours unite into one, what new colour will they produce by their union?
4705Or is it entire in any one part without deserting the rest?
4705Or that it is impossible to draw more than one right line betwixt any two points?
4705Or, who ever performed any, that he might give rise to true conclusions?]
4705Ought the right of the elder to be regarded in a nation, where the eldest brother had no advantage in the succession to private families?
4705Shall the despair of success make me assert, that I am here possest of an idea, which is not preceded by any similar impression?
4705Shall we then rest contented with these two relations of contiguity and succession, as affording a complete idea of causation?
4705Shall we, then, establish it for a general maxim, that no refined or elaborate reasoning is ever to be received?
4705Should it be asked, what proportion these two species of morality bear to each other?
4705The next question is, Of what nature are these impressions, and after what manner do they operate upon us?
4705The next question, then, should naturally be, how experience gives rise to such a principle?
4705The question is, whether these intervals do not afford us the idea of extension without body?
4705Under what obligation do I lie of making such an abuse of time?
4705WHETHER IT IS BY MEANS OF OUR IDEAS OR IMPRESSIONS WE DISTINGUISH BETWIXT VICE AND VIRTUE, AND PRONOUNCE AN ACTION BLAMEABLE OR PRAISEWORTHY?
4705We may well ask, What causes induce us to believe in the existence of body?
4705What beings surround me?
4705What farther proof can be desired for the present system?
4705What farther proof can we desire for the double relation of impressions and ideas?
4705What follows?
4705What if I be in necessity, and have urgent motives to acquire something to my family?
4705What if he be a miser, and can make no use of what I would deprive him of?
4705What if he be a profligate debauchee, and would rather receive harm than benefit from large possessions?
4705What if he be a vicious man, and deserves the hatred of all mankind?
4705What more inconstant than the desires of man?
4705What party, then, shall we choose among these difficulties?
4705What restraint, therefore, shall we impose on women, in order to counter- balance so strong a temptation as they have to infidelity?
4705What then can we look for from this confusion of groundless and extraordinary opinions but error and falshood?
4705When it is asked, whether a quick or a slow apprehension be most valuable?
4705Where am I, or what?
4705Whether shall the red or the blue be annihilated?
4705Which of them shall we prefer?
4705Who can tell me, for instance, what were his thoughts and actions on the 1st of January 1715, the 11th of March 1719, and the 3rd of August 1733?
4705Whose favour shall I court, and whose anger must I dread?
4705Why then look any farther, or multiply suppositions without necessity?
4705Why?
4705Why?
4705and on whom have, I any influence, or who have any influence on me?
4705but it is in vain to ask, Whether there be body or not?
4705in short, what character, or peculiar understanding, is more excellent than another?
4705whether a clear head, or a copious invention?
4705whether a profound genius, or a sure judgment?
53792A merchant is desirous of knowing the sum total of his accounts with any person: why?
53792All the planets, are they not earths, which revolve about the sun?
53792An action, or sentiment, or character, is virtuous or vicious; why?
53792And are you so late in perceiving it?
53792And by being the first, replied Demea, might he not have been sensible of his error?
53792And for what reason impose on himself such a violence?
53792And have you at last, said Cleanthes smiling, betrayed your intentions, Philo?
53792And how distinguish that exactly from a probability?
53792And if it requires a cause in both, what do we gain by your system, in tracing the universe of objects into a similar universe of ideas?
53792And if they were founded on original instincts, could they have any greater stability?
53792And is the slight, imaginary resemblance of the world to a vegetable or an animal sufficient to establish the same inference with regard to both?
53792And these whence?
53792And what argument have you against such convulsions?
53792And what creature departs more widely, not only from right reason, but from his own character and disposition?
53792And what philosophers could possibly submit to so rigid a rule?
53792And what say you to the discoveries in anatomy, chemistry, botany?...
53792And what shadow of an argument, continued Philo, can you produce, from your hypothesis, to prove the unity of the Deity?
53792And where is the difficulty, replied Philo, of that supposition?
53792And who can doubt of what all men declare from their own immediate feeling and experience?
53792And why not become a perfect Anthropomorphite?
53792And why not the same, I ask, in the theological and religious?
53792And why should man, added he, pretend to an exemption from the lot of all other animals?
53792And, after all, what satisfaction is there in that infinite progression?
53792And,_ Whether this feeling be any thing but a firmer conception, or a faster hold, that we take of the object_?
53792Are not the revolutions of the sun also a confirmation, from analogy, of the same theory?
53792Are not the satellites moons, which move round Jupiter and Saturn, and along with these primary planets round the sun?
53792Are the changes of our body from infancy to old age more regular and certain than those of our mind and conduct?
53792Are these, which have hitherto been so much insisted on by philosophers, all fallacy, all sophism?
53792Are they, therefore, upon that account, immoral?
53792Are you secretly, then, a more dangerous enemy than Cleanthes himself?
53792Are you so late, says Philo, in teaching your children the principles of religion?
53792Besides, consider, Demea: This very society, by which we surmount those wild beasts, our natural enemies; what new enemies does it not raise to us?
53792But according to this hypothesis, whence arise the many conveniences and advantages which men and all animals possess?
53792But after what manner does it give pleasure?
53792But can a conclusion, with any propriety, be transferred from parts to the whole?
53792But can there be any difficulty in proving, that vice and virtue are not matters of fact, whose existence we can infer by reason?
53792But can we ever reasonably expect greater success in any attempts of this nature?
53792But did the retired life, in which he sought for shelter, afford him any greater happiness?

53792But how is it conceivable, said Demea, that the world can arise from any thing similar to vegetation or generation?
53792But how oft do they break their bounds, and cause the greatest convulsions in society?
53792But how shall he support this enthusiasm itself?
53792But if they were really as unhappy as they pretend, says my antagonist, why do they remain in life?....
53792But if we must needs fix on some hypothesis; by what rule, pray, ought we to determine our choice?
53792But if we stop, and go no farther; why go so far?
53792But in what manner?
53792But is a part of nature a rule for another part very wide of the former?
53792But is property, or right, or obligation, intelligible without an antecedent morality?
53792But is the whole adjustment of means to ends in a house and in the universe so slight a resemblance?
53792But may not the sense of morality or duty produce an action, without any other motive?
53792But might not other particular volitions remedy this inconvenience?
53792But shall we say, upon that account, that the wine is harmonious, or the music of a good flavour?
53792But then I ask, if the removal of design be able entirely to remove the passion of love and hatred?
53792But what do we mean by impossible?
53792But what is the consequence?
53792But what is this vegetation and generation of which you talk, said Demea?
53792But what makes the end agreeable?
53792But what passion?
53792But what, I beseech you, is the object of that curious artifice and machinery, which she has displayed in all animals?
53792But who will assert, that this is the only foundation of justice?
53792Can the one opinion be intelligible, while the other is not so?
53792Can we reach no farther in this subject than experience and probability?
53792Can you explain their operations, and anatomize that fine internal structure on which they depend?
53792Can you pretend to show any such similarity between the fabric of a house, find the generation of a universe?
53792Do n''t you remember, said Philo, the excellent saying of Lord Bacon on this head?
53792Do the children arise from this copulation more uniformly, than does the parents''care for their safety and preservation?
53792Do we not find, that it immediately perishes whenever this adjustment ceases, and that its matter corrupting tries some new form?
53792Do you conceive any thing but merely that perception?
53792Does it discover a relation or a matter of fact?
53792Does not the great disproportion bar all comparison and inference?
53792For how can an effect, which either is finite, or, for aught we know, may be so; how can such an effect, I say, prove an infinite cause?
53792For instance, what if I should revive the old Epicurean hypothesis?
53792For is it necessary to prove what every one feels within himself?
53792For is this a subject in which philosophers can propose to make discoveries especially in so late an age?
53792For it is more certain that two flat pieces of marble will unite together, than two young savages of different sexes will copulate?
53792For to what purpose establish the natural attributes of the Deity, while the moral are still doubtful and uncertain?
53792For what does reason discover, when it pronounces any action vicious?
53792For what if he be my enemy, and has given me just cause to hate him?
53792For what is more capricious than human actions?
53792For what is there in this subject, which should occasion a different conclusion or inference?
53792For what other name can I give them?
53792For what reason?
53792For whence could arise so wonderful a faculty but from design?
53792For who ever thought of forbearing any action, because others might possibly draw false conclusions from it?
53792From observing the growth of a hair, can we learn any thing concerning the generation of a man?
53792From whence does this proceed, but that the memory in the first case assists the fancy, and gives an additional force and vigour to its conceptions?
53792From_ their_ parents?
53792Have we not the same reason to trace that ideal world into another ideal world, or new intelligent principle?
53792Have you any notion of_ self_ or_ substance_?
53792Have you ever seen nature in any such situation as resembles the first arrangement of the elements?
53792Have you other earths, might he say, which you have seen to move?
53792How can any thing, that exists from eternity, have a cause, since that relation implies a priority in time, and a beginning of existence?
53792How can we satisfy ourselves without going on_ in infinitum_?
53792How could things have been as they are, were there not an original inherent principle of order somewhere, in thought or in matter?
53792How do we separate this impossibility from an improbability?
53792How is it possible they could ever become objects of pride, except by means of that transition above explained?
53792How is this compatible with that perfect immutability and simplicity which all true Theists ascribe to the Deity?
53792How is this to be accounted for?
53792How many have scarcely ever felt any better sensations?
53792How many lie under the lingering torment of diseases?
53792How then does the Divine benevolence display itself, in the sense of you Anthropomorphites?
53792I would fain know, how an animal could subsist, unless its parts were so adjusted?
53792If it be, how can that question have place, concerning the subsistence of self, under a change of substance?
53792If no camels had been created for the use of man in the sandy deserts of Africa and Arabia, would the world have been dissolved?
53792If they be distinct, what is the difference betwixt them?
53792If we survey a ship, what an exalted idea must we form of the ingenuity of the carpenter who framed so complicated, useful, and beautiful a machine?
53792In what respect, then, do his benevolence and mercy resemble the benevolence and mercy of men?
53792Is a very small part a rule for the universe?
53792Is he able, but not willing?
53792Is he willing to prevent evil, but not able?
53792Is it a rule for the whole?
53792Is it any thing but a greater sensibility to all the pleasures and pains of life?
53792Is it because''tis his duty to be grateful?
53792Is it contrary to his intention?
53792Is it from the intention of the Deity?
53792Is nature in one situation, a certain rule for nature in another situation vastly different from the former?
53792Is not Venus another earth, where we observe the same phenomenon?
53792Is not such an unequal conduct a plain proof of prejudice and passion?
53792Is not the moon another earth, which we see to turn round its centre?
53792Is not this a proof, that the religious spirit is not so nearly allied to joy as to sorrow?
53792Is the name, without any meaning, of such mighty importance?
53792Is there any other rule than the greater similarity of the objects compared?
53792Is_ self_ the same with_ substance_?
53792JUSTICE, WHETHER A NATURAL OR ARTIFICIAL VIRTUE?
53792Justice, whether a natural or artificial Virtue?
53792Now the question is, after what manner this utility and importance operate upon us?
53792Now, after what manner are they related to ourselves?
53792Now, as to the_ manner_ of thinking; how can we make any comparison between them, or suppose them any wise resembling?
53792Objects, which are in general so widely different, ought they to be a standard for each other?
53792Omnibus inque locis esse omni tempore prà ¦ sto?
53792Or how can order spring from any thing which perceives not that order which it bestows?
53792Or if it be possible to imagine, that such errors are the sources of all immorality?
53792Or if the tree was once transplanted and propagated, how could it ever afterwards perish?
53792Or who ever performed any, that he might give rise to true conclusions?
53792Ought the right of the elder to be regarded in a nation, where the eldest brother had no advantage in the succession to private families?
53792Quis pariter coelos omnes convertere?
53792Rains are necessary to nourish all the plants and animals of the earth: but how often are they defective?
53792Shall we conjecture, that such a contrivance was necessary, without any appearance of reason?
53792Shall we say that these circumstances are not necessary, and that they might easily have been altered in the contrivance of the universe?
53792Should it be asked,_ what proportion these two species of morality bear to each other_?
53792Since, therefore, this is the case with regard to property, and rights, and obligations, I ask, how it stands with regard to justice and injustice?
53792The economy of final causes?
53792The next question is, of what nature are these impressions, and after what manner do they operate upon us?
53792The order, proportion, and arrangement of every part?
53792To turn the gay side of life to him, and give him a notion of its pleasures; whether should I conduct him?
53792To what degree, therefore, of blind dogmatism must one have attained, to reject such natural and such convincing arguments?
53792Was it_ Nothing_?
53792What devotion or worship address to them?
53792What farther proof can be desired for the present system?
53792What farther proof can we desire for the double relation of impressions and ideas?
53792What follows?
53792What if I be in necessity, and have urgent motives to acquire something to my family?
53792What if he be a miser, and can make no use of what I would deprive him of?
53792What if he be a profligate debauchee, and would rather receive harm than benefit from large possessions?
53792What if he be a vicious man, and deserves the hatred of all mankind?
53792What is the soul of man?
53792What more inconstant than the desires of man?
53792What more useful than all the passions of the mind, ambition, vanity love, anger?
53792What peculiar privilege has this little agitation of the brain which we call_ thought_, that we must thus make it the model of the whole universe?
53792What restraint, therefore, shall we impose on women, in order to counterbalance so strong a temptation as they have to infidelity?
53792What then shall we pronounce on this occasion?
53792What veneration or obedience pay them?
53792What was it, then, which determined Something to exist rather than Nothing, and bestowed being on a particular possibility, exclusive of the rest?
53792What wo and misery does it not occasion?
53792What_ data_ have you for such extraordinary conclusions?
53792When it is asked, whether a quick or a slow apprehension be most valuable?
53792Whence arises the curious structure of an animal?
53792Whence can any cause be known but from its known effects?
53792Whence can any hypothesis be proved but from the apparent phenomena?
53792Where then is the difficulty?
53792Where then, cry I to both these antagonists, is the subject of your dispute?
53792Why have all men, I ask, in all ages, complained incessantly of the miseries of life?....
53792Why is there any misery at all in the world?
53792Why must this circumstance, so universal, so essential, be excluded from those numerous and limited deities?
53792Why not assert the deity or deities to be corporeal, and to have eyes, a nose, mouth, ears,& c.?
53792Why then is any animal ever rendered susceptible of such a sensation?
53792Why then look any farther, or multiply suppositions without necessity?
53792Why, then, should we think, that order is more essential to one than the other?
53792Why?
53792Why?
53792Would the manner of a leaf''s blowing, even though perfectly known, afford us any instruction concerning the vegetation of a tree?
53792You start abstruse doubts, cavils, and objections: You ask me, what is the cause of this cause?
53792_ First_, It is directly contrary to experience, and our immediate consciousness?
53792and must you not instantly ascribe it to some design or purpose?
53792and shall we build on that conjecture as on the most certain truth?
53792cried Demea, interrupting him, where are we?
53792cried Demea: Whither does your imagination hurry you?
53792et omnes Ignibus à ¦ theriis terras suffire feraces?
53792how often excessive?
53792in short, what character, or peculiar understanding, is more excellent than another?
53792nay often the absence of one good( and who can possess all?)
53792or, why spare my censure, when such principles are advanced, supported by such an authority, before so young a man as Pamphilus?
53792quemadmodum autem obedire et parere voluntati architecti aer, ignis, aqua, terra potuerunt?''
53792qui minstri tanti muneris fuerunt?
53792qui vectes?
53792quà ¦ ferramenta?
53792quà ¦ machinà ¦?
53792quà ¦ molito?
53792then is he malevolent Is he both able and willing?
53792to a ball, to an opera, to court?
53792whence then is evil?
53792whether a clear head, or a copious invention?
53792whether a profound genius, or a sure judgment?
53792why not stop at the material world?
37284A bad son, I am afraid?
37284Ai n''t there really, though?
37284All of''em, ma''am?
37284And did none of them ever die?
37284And did none of them ever grow older?
37284And did the money never melt away?
37284And do you always lock the babies up when you go out?
37284And do you live alone here with these babies, Charley?
37284And do you often go out?
37284And do you suppose_ he_ minds such things as crocuses?
37284And have the children looked after themselves at all, sir?
37284And how do you do, sir?
37284And how do you live, Charley? 37284 And is that why you would put tables and chairs upon them, and have people walking over them with heavy boots?"
37284And please, what''s hulks?
37284And so, Phil,says George of the Shooting Gallery, after several turns in silence,"you were dreaming of the country last night?"
37284And what are you thinking about me?
37284And what,asked Mr. Gradgrind in a still lower voice,"did you read to your father, Jupe?"
37284And when did mother die? 37284 And which is Oliver?"
37284And yet,said Mr. Dombey,"you are two or three and thirty, I suppose?"
37284And you''ll soon be grown up now?
37284Are you there?
37284Art in Heaven-- is the light a- comin'', sir?
37284But can you, oh, can you really believe that this delicate boy has been the voluntary associate of the worst outcasts of society?
37284But what makes you say this along of Rob, father?
37284But you''re coming back to speak to me, when you have seen the gentleman away?
37284But-- but do you think it did Edward good?
37284Can you read?
37284Come in,he said,"come in; what is the child afraid of?"
37284Corporal punishment dispensed with?
37284David,he said, making his lips thin, by pressing them together,"if I have an obstinate horse or dog to deal with, what do you think I do?"
37284Do n''t know?
37284Do you hear, Paul?
37284Do you hear?
37284Do you know who I am?
37284Do you mean pretending to go there, and not going?
37284Do you remember when he did this?
37284Do you remember when in his inheritance of your nature, and in your pampering of his pride and passion, he did this, and disfigured me for life? 37284 Do you see this?"
37284Do you think it did Edward harm, Clara?
37284Driven to do it, were you?
37284Eh?
37284Excepting what?
37284Father-- when''s he coming home?
37284Formed his daughter on his own model?
37284Given to government, Joe?
37284Had n''t he better let it go?
37284Have you anything to say?
37284Have you as many as eight vacancies?
37284Have you nothing to say to me?
37284Have you-- did anybody-- has nothing been heard-- about me?
37284He ai n''t got to be at all secretlike-- has he, Polly?
37284He did n''t take any notice of you, I suppose?
37284He is a nice- looking boy, is he not?
37284His daughter? 37284 How can you ask such things, sir?
37284How could you give me life, and take from me all the inappreciable things that raise it from the state of conscious death? 37284 How did you know it was the country?"
37284How old are you, Phil?
37284How old are you?
37284I suppose,said Mr. Toodle, relishing his meal infinitely,"as our Biler is a- doin''now about as well as a boy_ can_ do, eh, Polly?"
37284I surprise you, sir?
37284I wonder who''s put into prison ships, and why they''re put there?
37284If the bull was mad,said Paul,"how did he know that the boy had asked questions?
37284In numbers, how many?
37284Is every boy here?
37284Is he, indeed?
37284Is yours a strong constitution?
37284It sounds unnatural, do n''t it?
37284Jo, can you say what I say?
37284Just fill that mug up with lukewarm water, William, will you?
37284Master Briggs?
37284Miss Dartle,said I,"if you can be so obdurate as not to feel for this afflicted mother----""Who feels for me?"
37284Mrs. Joe,said I, as a last resort,"I should like to know-- if you would n''t much mind-- where the firing comes from?"
37284My dear Steerforth, what is the matter?
37284My dear love,said the elder lady, as she folded the weeping girl to her bosom,"do you think I would harm a hair of his head?"
37284Not if it should happen to have been a tame bull, you little infidel?
37284Not polite?
37284Not so much as one short prayer?
37284Nothing, I suppose?
37284Nothing, sir?
37284Now, Dombey,said Miss Blimber,"how have you got on with those books?"
37284Now, Marigold, tell me what more do you want your adopted daughter to know?
37284Now, do you want any more?
37284Shall we make a man of him?
37284Shall we make a man of him?
37284So long as that?
37284So you would carpet your room-- or your husband''s room, if you were a grown woman and had a husband-- with representations of flowers, would you? 37284 That is to say,"said Arthur, with a growing admiration of his quiet companion,"you are not fully discouraged even now?"
37284The country,says Mr. George, plying his knife and fork;"why, I suppose you never clapped your eyes on the country, Phil?"
37284The town''s enough for you, eh?
37284Then what did you say''nothing''for, sir?
37284Then why do n''t you learn?
37284Then why do n''t you let me have some money of my own?
37284Then why do n''t you shut him up? 37284 There''s no harm in that, I hope?"
37284They? 37284 This fellow,"said Mr. Carker to Polly, giving him a gentle shake,"is your son, eh, ma''am?"
37284This is most extraordinary,says the gentleman;"is it possible that you have been her only teacher?"
37284This is two penn''orth of milk, is it, waiter?
37284Tired? 37284 To keep''em safe, sir, do n''t you see?"
37284To the wery top, sir?
37284To whom, then?
37284Trouble?
37284Vice,sighed the surgeon, replacing the curtain,"takes up her abode in many temples; and who can say that a fair outside shall not enshrine her?"
37284Was you, indeed, commander?
37284What am I like, Mr. Young Jackson?
37284What am I like, Mr. Young Jackson?
37284What am I like, Young Jackson?
37284What are you bothering about there, Smike?
37284What are you crying for?
37284What can this mean?
37284What do I remember if not you? 37284 What do you mean by we?"
37284What do you see in it?
37284What does that mean?
37284What is that?
37284What is the matter? 37284 What it was like?"
37284What marshes?
37284What was it like?
37284What were the swans doing on the grass?
37284What would you ride, sir? 37284 What''s gone of your father and your mother, eh?"
37284What''s that, sir?
37284What''s that, sir?
37284What''s that?
37284What''s the report of this boy?
37284What''s your name, boy?
37284What?
37284What_ have_ I done?
37284Where are they?
37284Where do you live?
37284Who cried stop?
37284Who said that?
37284Who''s firing?
37284Why do n''t you want to see him, then?
37284Why not?
37284Why that''s the proper time for me to talk, is n''t it?
37284Why?
37284Why?
37284With anything?
37284With chalk, sir?
37284With some money, of course?
37284Wondering again?
37284Would you have doomed me, at any time, to the frost and blight that have hardened and spoiled me? 37284 Write?"
37284You do n''t believe it, sir?
37284You have a bad father, have you?
37284You have a son, I believe?
37284You know you''ve got no father or mother, and that you were brought up by the parish, do n''t you?
37284You remember Me, Mr. Young Jackson?
37284You remember me, Mr. Young Jackson?
37284You remember me, Young Jackson?
37284You see that fellow? 37284 You sleep in my room, do n''t you?"
37284You''re the waxwork child, are you not?
37284*****"Berry''s very fond of you, ai n''t she?"
37284A wild ass or zebra would be too tame for you, would n''t he, eh, sir?
37284An''t my place dirty?
37284And that''s how I know how; do n''t you see, sir?"
37284And what did it matter?
37284And what do you mean by pulling up the crocuses and snowdrops, eh, sir?"
37284And when I says to the Major,"Major, ca n''t you by_ any_ means give us a communication with the guard?"
37284Are they obliged to sit mumchance, and to be ordered about till they are the laughingstock of young and old?
37284Are you going to kill the wintner, sir?"
37284Are you ready?"
37284Are you rewarded,_ now_, for your years of trouble?"
37284Bishop said, dubiously, did he really think so?
37284But have you been very dutiful to me?"
37284But what about the hundreds of thousands of minds that have been deformed forever by the incapable pettifoggers who have pretended to form them?
37284But what is a man to do?
37284But why was Miss Monflathers always vexed and irritated with the poor apprentice-- how did that come to pass?
37284But will you promise to have me took there, sir, and laid along with him?"
37284Charley,"said my guardian, turning his face away for a moment,"how do you live?"
37284Come back harder?
37284David said:"It is laborious, is it not?"
37284Dickens makes the artist in Somebody''s Luggage say:"Who are you passing every day at your competitive excruciations?
37284Did Louisa see these things of herself?
37284Did it bite, hey?
37284Did it bite?
37284Did you ever know a prayer?"
37284Do I understand that he asked for more, after he had eaten the supper allotted by the dietary?"
37284Do n''t they, Tom?"
37284Do n''t you know that the harder you are at work, the happier you are?"
37284Do you ever see horses walking up and down the sides of rooms in reality-- in fact?
37284Do you mind?"
37284Do you want to see the country, Phil?"
37284Do you?"
37284Dombey?"
37284Every teacher should ask himself every day,"Am I a child- queller?"
37284Had it a deep prong, hey?
37284Have they no liberty, no will, no right to speak?
37284He doctors sick horses, I dare say?"
37284He then showed me the cane, and asked me what I thought of_ that_, for a tooth?
37284Hey?
37284Hey?"
37284Hey?"
37284Hey?"
37284Hey?"
37284How can you ask?"
37284How could he?
37284How did I know it?
37284How do you communicate with her?"
37284How do you like it, and what do you think of gin, instead?
37284How much those benighted teachers who so tragically ask"What_ can_ you do with bad boys, if you do_ not_ use corporal punishment?"
37284How old should you think my father was, cousin?"
37284How would he do it?
37284I am a very little boy, sir; and it is so-- so----""So what?"
37284I began it, when I was but a child, because it brought me and other children into company, do n''t you see?
37284I believe young people are quick enough to observe and imitate; and why or how should they respect whom no one else respects, and everybody slights?
37284I know what you''re a- going to say, Pip?
37284I understand you to have been in the habit of reading to your father?"
37284I wonder where they_ do_ go, by the bye?
37284Inspired?
37284Is my daughter a- washin''?
37284Is there any light a- comin''?"
37284Jellyby''s?"
37284Joey asked, when Mr. Wilding unfolded his plan:"Is all to live in the house, Young Master Wilding?
37284Like a sort of rebel, do n''t you see?"
37284Look at your boy: he is yourn, ai n''t he?
37284Louisa sat looking at the fire so long that Tom asked,"Have you gone to sleep, Loo?"
37284My childhood had no grace of childhood, my youth had no charm of youth, and what can be expected from such a lost beginning?"
37284My misfortunes all began in wagging, sir, but what could I do, exceptin''wag?"
37284Nickleby?"
37284No?
37284Now let me ask you girls and boys, would you paper a room with representations of horses?"
37284Of what?"
37284On leaving, Mr. Dombey said to Paul:"You''ll try and learn a great deal here, and be a clever man, wo n''t you?"
37284One day he said to them:"Why are you not interested here?
37284People that met us might stare a bit and laugh, but what did_ I_ care if she caught the idea?
37284Perhaps your overhearing my little scholars sing some of their lessons has led you so far astray as to think me a good teacher?
37284Redlaw, in The Haunted Man, said to the poor boy who came to his room:"What is your name?"
37284Rosa Dartle asked Steerforth about"That sort of people-- are they really animals and clods, and beings of another order?
37284Shall I tell you what I consider those eyes of hers that were here just now, to have always looked at, to get that expression?
37284Spell it?
37284The fortunate candidates whose heads and livers you have turned upside down for life?
37284The happiness of the little"minders"at old Betty Higden''s is in sharp contrast to the misery of the boarders of the respectable(?)

37284Thee wish to be made acquainted with the cage, dost thee-- the cage, the stocks, and the whipping post?
37284They used to say to one another, sometimes, Supposing all the children upon earth were to die, would the flowers, and the water, and the sky be sorry?
37284This early trial of yours, that is fit to make your little heart burst and your very eyes come out of your head with crying, what is it?
37284Was Dickens consciously and intentionally an educator?
37284Was it a double tooth, hey?
37284Was it a sharp tooth, hey?
37284What burying- ground, Jo?"
37284What can I do to save him, sir?"
37284What can you possibly want to know of circuses then?
37284What childhood did you ever leave to me?
37284What could a boy do but hate him?
37284What do you mean, boy?"
37284What does she make a sham for, and pretend to give me money, and take it away again?
37284What else did you expect?"
37284What escape have I had from problems that could be demonstrated, and realities that could be grasped?"
37284What have paupers to do with soul or spirit?
37284What have you done, O father, what have you done, with the garden that should have bloomed once, in this great wilderness here?"
37284What is it?
37284What is your father?"
37284What more natural or more logical than the practice of checking the outflow of a child''s inner life if we believe his inner life to be depraved?
37284What now?"
37284What''s amiss, old boy?
37284What''s come of all the boys?
37284What''s home?
37284What''s that?"
37284What_ could_ the boy be crying for?

37284Where''s his religion, I should like to know, when he goes flying in the face of the Bible like that?
37284Who are you?
37284Who does not know what must be the central point of all the happiness of such a child?
37284Who is that girl?"
37284Who would exchange this rapid hurry of the blood for yonder stagnant misery, though its pace were twenty miles for one?
37284Why are you fond of your sister Florence?"
37284Why do you call it_ my_ allowance, and never let me spend it?"
37284Why do you use me like this?
37284Why would n''t you?"
37284Why would you?"
37284Will you hold that noise, sir?"
37284Will, purpose, hope?
37284Would you like to feel it?
37284Would you use a carpet having a representation of flowers upon it?"
37284You do n''t mind sleeping among the coffins, I suppose?
37284You have been in the habit of reading to your father and those people I found you among, I dare say?"
37284You have found it out at last, have you?
37284You know you''re an orphan, I suppose?"
37284You ordered that thick bread and butter for three, did you?"
37284You remember?"
37284You''d like to ride a roaring lion, would n''t you, sir, eh, sir?
37284Your father breaks horses, do n''t he?"
37284echoed my sister,"trouble?"
37284he said to Mr. Dombey;"and how is my little friend?"
37284it was n''t your fault; it was mine, I suppose-- eh?"
37284it''s you, is it?"
37284retorted Joe sorrowfully;"why do n''t you, father?
37284said Edith, looking at her;"when was I a child?
37284said Mr. Gradgrind, leading each away by a hand;"what do you do here?"
37284sneezed, did you?"
37284that''s all, is it?"
37284that''s the milk and water, is it, William?"
37284the Major says, quite huffy,"No, madam, it''s not to be done"; and when I says,"Why not?"
37284what does it all mean?"
37284what''s parents got in their heads?
37284when were they so good- humouredly and merrily bloused?
37284where''s ma''s duty as a parent?"
1726''And he who remembers, remembers that which he sees and knows?''
1726''And he who sees knows?''
1726''And if you say"Yes,"the tongue will escape conviction but not the mind, as Euripides would say?''
1726''But Protagoras will retort:"Can anything be more or less without addition or subtraction?"''
1726''But if he closes his eyes, does he not remember?''
1726''Excellent; I want you to grow, and therefore I will leave that answer and ask another question: Is not seeing perceiving?''
1726''That I should expect; but why did he not remain at Megara?''
1726''What do you mean, Socrates?''
1726''What do you mean?''
1726''What may that be?''
1726''Why, Socrates, how can you argue at all without using them?''
1726( b) Would he have based the relativity of knowledge on the Heraclitean flux?
1726( c) Would he have asserted the absoluteness of sensation at each instant?
1726--That will be our answer?
1726Am I not right, Theaetetus, and is not this your new- born child, of which I have delivered you?
1726Am I not right?
1726Am I not right?
1726And could you repeat the conversation?''
1726And do you not like the taste of them in the mouth?
1726And has Plato kept altogether clear of a confusion, which the analogous word logos tends to create, of a proposition and a definition?
1726And how can any one be ignorant of either of them, and yet know both of them?
1726And if they differ in opinion, which of them is likely to be right; or are they both right?
1726And is not the confusion increased by the use of the analogous term''elements,''or''letters''?
1726And now, what are you saying?--Are there two sorts of opinion, one true and the other false; and do you define knowledge to be the true?
1726And so we must ask again, What is knowledge?
1726And so you are satisfied that false opinion is heterodoxy, or the thought of something else?
1726And so, Theaetetus, knowledge is neither sensation nor true opinion, nor yet definition and explanation accompanying and added to true opinion?
1726And the same of perceiving: do you understand me?
1726And therefore let us draw nearer, as the advocate of Protagoras desires; and give the truth of the universal flux a ring: is the theory sound or not?
1726And what other case is conceivable, upon the supposition that we either know or do not know all things?
1726And yet is not the all that of which nothing is wanting?
1726Are its movements identical with those of the body, or only preconcerted and coincident with them, or is one simply an aspect of the other?
1726Are not these speculations charming, Theaetetus, and very good for a person in your interesting situation?
1726Are you so profoundly convinced of this?
1726Are you still in labour, or have you brought all you have to say about knowledge to the birth?
1726But I should like to know, Socrates, whether you mean to say that all this is untrue?''
1726But are we not inverting the natural order in looking for opinion before we have found knowledge?
1726But did you ever say to yourself, that good is evil, or evil good?
1726But do you begin to see what is the explanation of this perplexity on the hypothesis which we attribute to Protagoras?
1726But have we not escaped one difficulty only to encounter a greater?
1726But here we are met by a singular difficulty: How is false opinion possible?
1726But how can he who knows the forms of knowledge and the forms of ignorance imagine one to be the other?
1726But how can the syllable be known if the letter remains unknown?
1726But how is false opinion possible?
1726But if knowledge is perception, how can we distinguish between the true and the false in such cases?
1726But is true opinion really distinct from knowledge?
1726But may there not be''heterodoxy,''or transference of opinion;--I mean, may not one thing be supposed to be another?
1726But still an old difficulty recurs; we ask ourselves,''How is false opinion possible?''
1726But tell me, Socrates, in heaven''s name, is this, after all, not the truth?
1726But then, as Plato asks,--and we must repeat the question,--What becomes of the mind?
1726But what is SO?
1726But what is the third definition?
1726But when the word''knowledge''was found how was it to be explained or defined?
1726But why did he go on, instead of stopping at Megara?
1726But would this hold in any parallel case?
1726But, as we are at our wits''end, suppose that we do a shameless thing?
1726But, seeing that we are no great wits, shall I venture to say what knowing is?
1726Can a man see and see nothing?
1726Can a whole be something different from the parts?
1726Can two unknowns make a known?
1726Can we answer that question?
1726Can we suppose one set of feelings or one part of the mind to interpret another?
1726Could he have pretended to cite from a well- known writing what was not to be found there?
1726Did Protagoras merely mean to assert the relativity of knowledge to the human mind?
1726Did you ever hear that too?
1726Do we not seem to perceive instinctively and as an act of sense the differences of articulate speech and of musical notes?
1726Do you agree?
1726Do you know the original principle on which the doctrine of Protagoras is based?''
1726Do you see, Theaetetus, the bearings of this tale on the preceding argument?
1726Do you suppose that what is one is ever to be found among non- existing things?
1726Does it differ as subject and object in the same manner?
1726Does not explanation appear to be of this nature?
1726EUCLID: Have you only just arrived from the country, Terpsion?
1726Even in sleep, did you ever imagine that odd was even?
1726For an objection occurs to him:--May there not be errors where there is no confusion of mind and sense?
1726For how can the exchange of two kinds of knowledge ever become false opinion?
1726For how can we know a compound of which the simple elements are unknown to us?
1726For if the Heraclitean flux is extended to every sort of change in every instant of time, how can any thought or word be detained even for an instant?
1726For must not opinion be equally expressed in a proposition?
1726He asks whether a man can know and not know at the same time?
1726How can a man understand the name of anything, when he does not know the nature of it?
1726How can you or any one maintain the contrary?
1726How is this?
1726How will Protagoras answer this argument?
1726I dare say that you agree with me, do you not?
1726I have, I fear, a tedious way of putting a simple question, which is only, whether a man who has learned, and remembers, can fail to know?
1726I hope, Theodorus, that I am not betrayed into rudeness by my love of conversation?
1726I suppose, Theodorus, that you have never seen them in time of peace, when they discourse at leisure to their disciples?
1726I will endeavour, however, to explain what I believe to be my meaning: When you speak of cobbling, you mean the art or science of making shoes?
1726I will make my meaning clearer by an example:--You admit that there is an art of arithmetic?
1726If all that exists in time is illusion, we may well ask with Plato,''What becomes of the mind?''
1726In what does this differ from the saying of Theaetetus?
1726Is he to be reared in any case, and not exposed?
1726Is it not one which would task the powers of men perfect in every way?
1726Is it not so?
1726Is not the world full of men in their several employments, who are looking for teachers and rulers of themselves and of the animals?
1726Is not this a"reductio ad absurdum"of the hypothesis that knowledge is sensible perception?
1726Is the introspecting thought the same with the thought which is introspected?
1726Is the mind active or passive, or partly both?
1726Is there any stopping in the act of seeing and hearing?
1726Is there only one kind of motion, or, as I rather incline to think, two?
1726Is there some other form of knowledge which distinguishes them?
1726Let us grant what you say-- then, according to you, he who takes ignorance will have a false opinion-- am I right?
1726Man, he says, is the measure of all things, of the existence of things that are, and of the non- existence of things that are not:--You have read him?
1726Must he not be talking''ad captandum''in all this?
1726Must he not see, hear, or touch some one existing thing?
1726Nay, not even in sleep, did you ever venture to say to yourself that odd is even, or anything of the kind?
1726O Theaetetus, are not these speculations sweet as honey?
1726O Theodorus, do you think that there is any use in proceeding when the danger is so great?
1726Once more then, Theaetetus, I repeat my old question--"What is knowledge?"
1726Once more, then, Theaetetus, I repeat my old question,''What is knowledge?''
1726Or again, if we see letters which we do not understand, shall we say that we do not see them?
1726Or are they both right?--he will have a heat and fever in his own judgment, and not have a fever in the physician''s judgment?
1726Or did any man in his senses ever fancy that an ox was a horse, or that two are one?
1726Or did he mean to deny that there is an objective standard of truth?
1726Or where is the spectator having any right to censure or control us, as he might the poets?
1726Or would he admit that a man is one at all, and not rather many and infinite as the changes which take place in him?
1726Or would he hesitate to acknowledge that the same man may know and not know the same thing?
1726Or would you say that a whole, although formed out of the parts, is a single notion different from all the parts?
1726Or, if he is afraid of making this admission, would he ever grant that one who has become unlike is the same as before he became unlike?
1726Plato discards both figures, as not really solving the question which to us appears so simple:''How do we make mistakes?''
1726Rather would it not be true that it never appears exactly the same to you, because you are never exactly the same?
1726SOCRATES: According to this new view, the whole is supposed to differ from all?
1726SOCRATES: Again, in speaking of all( in the plural) is there not one thing which we express?
1726SOCRATES: Again, the number of the acre and the acre are the same; are they not?
1726SOCRATES: Am I talking nonsense, then?
1726SOCRATES: And I dare say too, or rather I am absolutely certain, that the midwives know better than others who is pregnant and who is not?
1726SOCRATES: And I who am the patient, and that which is the agent, will produce something different in each of the two cases?
1726SOCRATES: And also that different combinations will produce results which are not the same, but different?
1726SOCRATES: And another and another?
1726SOCRATES: And are you still in labour and travail, my dear friend, or have you brought all that you have to say about knowledge to the birth?
1726SOCRATES: And astronomy and harmony and calculation?
1726SOCRATES: And by wisdom the wise are wise?
1726SOCRATES: And can a man attain truth who fails of attaining being?
1726SOCRATES: And can he who misses the truth of anything, have a knowledge of that thing?
1726SOCRATES: And did you find such a class?
1726SOCRATES: And do we mean by a syllable two letters, or if there are more, all of them, or a single idea which arises out of the combination of them?
1726SOCRATES: And do you mean by conceiving, the same which I mean?
1726SOCRATES: And do you not remember that in your case and in that of others this often occurred in the process of learning to read?
1726SOCRATES: And do you suppose that with women the case is otherwise?
1726SOCRATES: And does he not allow that his own opinion is false, if he admits that the opinion of those who think him false is true?
1726SOCRATES: And does not he who thinks some one thing, think something which is?
1726SOCRATES: And does not he who thinks, think some one thing?
1726SOCRATES: And does not my art show that you have brought forth wind, and that the offspring of your brain are not worth bringing up?
1726SOCRATES: And does she not perceive the hardness of that which is hard by the touch, and the softness of that which is soft equally by the touch?
1726SOCRATES: And have you never heard, simpleton, that I am the son of a midwife, brave and burly, whose name was Phaenarete?
1726SOCRATES: And he can reckon abstract numbers in his head, or things about him which are numerable?
1726SOCRATES: And he who hears anything, hears some one thing, and hears that which is?
1726SOCRATES: And he who thinks of nothing, does not think at all?
1726SOCRATES: And he who touches anything, touches something which is one and therefore is?
1726SOCRATES: And how about Protagoras himself?
1726SOCRATES: And if any one were to ask you: With what does a man see black and white colours?
1726SOCRATES: And if he closed his eyes, would he forget?
1726SOCRATES: And if our recent definition holds, every man knows that which he has seen?
1726SOCRATES: And if they are to be in motion, and nothing is to be devoid of motion, all things must always have every sort of motion?
1726SOCRATES: And if unlike, they are other?
1726SOCRATES: And if we found that he was, we should take his word; and if not, not?
1726SOCRATES: And in each form of expression we spoke of all the six?
1726SOCRATES: And in like manner be may enumerate without knowing them the second and third and fourth syllables of your name?
1726SOCRATES: And in that case, when he knows the order of the letters and can write them out correctly, he has right opinion?
1726SOCRATES: And is Theodorus a painter?
1726SOCRATES: And is he an astronomer and calculator and musician, and in general an educated man?
1726SOCRATES: And is it not shameless when we do not know what knowledge is, to be explaining the verb''to know''?
1726SOCRATES: And is memory of something or of nothing?
1726SOCRATES: And is not a whole likewise that from which nothing is absent?
1726SOCRATES: And is not the bodily habit spoiled by rest and idleness, but preserved for a long time by motion and exercise?
1726SOCRATES: And is not this also the reason why they are simple and indivisible?
1726SOCRATES: And is that different in any way from knowledge?
1726SOCRATES: And is the discovery of the nature of knowledge so small a matter, as just now said?
1726SOCRATES: And is truth or falsehood to be determined by duration of time?
1726SOCRATES: And may not the same be said of madness and other disorders?
1726SOCRATES: And must therefore be admitted to be unlike?
1726SOCRATES: And of true opinion also?
1726SOCRATES: And seeing is knowing, and therefore not- seeing is not- knowing?
1726SOCRATES: And so, when the question is asked, What is knowledge?
1726SOCRATES: And that I myself practise midwifery?
1726SOCRATES: And that both are two and each of them one?
1726SOCRATES: And that either of them is different from the other, and the same with itself?
1726SOCRATES: And that is six?
1726SOCRATES: And that which he does not know will sometimes not be perceived by him and sometimes will be perceived and only perceived?
1726SOCRATES: And the army is the number of the army; and in all similar cases, the entire number of anything is the entire thing?
1726SOCRATES: And the number of each is the parts of each?
1726SOCRATES: And the number of the stadium in like manner is the stadium?
1726SOCRATES: And the race of animals is generated in the same way?
1726SOCRATES: And the truth of Protagoras being doubted by all, will be true neither to himself to any one else?
1726SOCRATES: And therefore not in science or knowledge?
1726SOCRATES: And they are moved in both those ways which we distinguished, that is to say, they move in place and are also changed?
1726SOCRATES: And to reckon is simply to consider how much such and such a number amounts to?
1726SOCRATES: And to which class would you refer being or essence; for this, of all our notions, is the most universal?
1726SOCRATES: And what name would you give to seeing, hearing, smelling, being cold and being hot?
1726SOCRATES: And what of the mental habit?
1726SOCRATES: And what would you say of perceptions, such as sight and hearing, or any other kind of perception?
1726SOCRATES: And when you speak of carpentering, you mean the art of making wooden implements?
1726SOCRATES: And who could take up arms against such a great army having Homer for its general, and not appear ridiculous?
1726SOCRATES: And would you call the two processes by the same name, when there is so great a difference between them?
1726SOCRATES: And would you not say that persuading them is making them have an opinion?
1726SOCRATES: And would you not say the same of Socrates sleeping and waking, or in any of the states which we were mentioning?
1726SOCRATES: And would you say that all and the whole are the same, or different?
1726SOCRATES: And would you say the same of the noble and base, and of good and evil?
1726SOCRATES: And would you say this also of like and unlike, same and other?
1726SOCRATES: And you allow and maintain that true opinion, combined with definition or rational explanation, is knowledge?
1726SOCRATES: And you would admit that there is such a thing as memory?
1726SOCRATES: And, in order to avoid this, we suppose it to be different from them?
1726SOCRATES: Attend to what follows: must not the perfect arithmetician know all numbers, for he has the science of all numbers in his mind?
1726SOCRATES: But all the parts are admitted to be the all, if the entire number is the all?
1726SOCRATES: But although we admit that he has right opinion, he will still be without knowledge?
1726SOCRATES: But can he be ignorant of either singly and yet know both together?
1726SOCRATES: But can you certainly determine by any other means which of these opinions is true?
1726SOCRATES: But if it be one and indivisible, then the syllables and the letters are alike undefined and unknown, and for the same reason?
1726SOCRATES: But if letters are not parts of syllables, can you tell me of any other parts of syllables, which are not letters?
1726SOCRATES: But is a part a part of anything but the whole?
1726SOCRATES: But is the aim attained always?
1726SOCRATES: But is there any parallel to this?
1726SOCRATES: But may not the following be the description of what we express by this name?
1726SOCRATES: But must not the mind, or thinking power, which misplaces them, have a conception either of both objects or of one of them?
1726SOCRATES: But surely he can not suppose what he knows to be what he does not know, or what he does not know to be what he knows?
1726SOCRATES: But then, my boy, how can any one contend that knowledge is perception, or that to every man what appears is?
1726SOCRATES: But through what do you perceive all this about them?
1726SOCRATES: But were we not saying that when a thing has parts, all the parts will be a whole and all?
1726SOCRATES: But when I am sick, the wine really acts upon another and a different person?
1726SOCRATES: Can a man see something and yet see nothing?
1726SOCRATES: Capital; and what followed?
1726SOCRATES: Do you hear, Theaetetus, what Theodorus says?
1726SOCRATES: Do you see another question which can be raised about these phenomena, notably about dreaming and waking?
1726SOCRATES: Does he not say that things are to you such as they appear to you, and to me such as they appear to me, and that you and I are men?
1726SOCRATES: Either together or in succession?
1726SOCRATES: Exactly; and I want you to consider whether this does not imply that the twelve in the waxen block are supposed to be eleven?
1726SOCRATES: Excellent; but then, how did he distinguish between things which are and are not''knowable''?
1726SOCRATES: He knows, that is, the S and O?
1726SOCRATES: He then who sees some one thing, sees something which is?
1726SOCRATES: He who knows, can not but know; and he who does not know, can not know?
1726SOCRATES: He will certainly not think that he has a false opinion?
1726SOCRATES: He will think that his opinion is true, and he will fancy that he knows the things about which he has been deceived?
1726SOCRATES: Herein lies the difficulty which I can never solve to my satisfaction-- What is knowledge?
1726SOCRATES: How about sounds and colours: in the first place you would admit that they both exist?
1726SOCRATES: How can the exchange of one knowledge for another ever become false opinion?
1726SOCRATES: How then, Protagoras, would you have us treat the argument?
1726SOCRATES: How then, if I never err, and if my mind never trips in the conception of being or becoming, can I fail of knowing that which I perceive?
1726SOCRATES: I think so too; for, suppose that some one asks you to spell the first syllable of my name:--Theaetetus, he says, what is SO?
1726SOCRATES: I wish that you would give me a similar definition of the S. THEAETETUS: But how can any one, Socrates, tell the elements of an element?
1726SOCRATES: If a man has both of them in his thoughts, he can not think that the one of them is the other?
1726SOCRATES: If they only moved in place and were not changed, we should be able to say what is the nature of the things which are in motion and flux?
1726SOCRATES: If you have any thought about both of them, this common perception can not come to you, either through the one or the other organ?
1726SOCRATES: If, then, anything happens to become like or unlike itself or another, when it becomes like we call it the same-- when unlike, other?
1726SOCRATES: In both cases you define the subject matter of each of the two arts?
1726SOCRATES: In the first place, I should like to ask what you learn of Theodorus: something of geometry, perhaps?
1726SOCRATES: Is he a geometrician?
1726SOCRATES: Is it still worth our while to resume the discussion touching opinion?
1726SOCRATES: It is possible then upon your view for the mind to conceive of one thing as another?
1726SOCRATES: Let me offer an illustration: Suppose that a person were to ask about some very trivial and obvious thing-- for example, What is clay?
1726SOCRATES: Let us take them and put them to the test, or rather, test ourselves:--What was the way in which we learned letters?
1726SOCRATES: Let us take you and me, or anything as an example:--There is Socrates in health, and Socrates sick-- Are they like or unlike?
1726SOCRATES: May we not pursue the image of the doves, and say that the chase after knowledge is of two kinds?
1726SOCRATES: Neither, if he has one of them only in his mind and not the other, can he think that one is the other?
1726SOCRATES: Nor of any other science?
1726SOCRATES: Of things learned and perceived, that is?
1726SOCRATES: Often a man remembers that which he has seen?
1726SOCRATES: Once more we shall have to begin, and ask''What is knowledge?''
1726SOCRATES: Or that anything appears the same to you as to another man?
1726SOCRATES: Perception would be the collective name of them?
1726SOCRATES: Quite true, Theaetetus, and therefore, according to our present view, a syllable must surely be some indivisible form?
1726SOCRATES: Shall I tell you the reason?
1726SOCRATES: Shall I tell you, Theodorus, what amazes me in your acquaintance Protagoras?
1726SOCRATES: Shall we say that we know every thing which we see and hear?
1726SOCRATES: Tell me, now-- How in that case could I have formed a judgment of you any more than of any one else?
1726SOCRATES: That is good news; whose son is he?
1726SOCRATES: That is of six?
1726SOCRATES: That was my reason for asking how we ought to speak when an arithmetician sets about numbering, or a grammarian about reading?
1726SOCRATES: The wine which I drink when I am in health, appears sweet and pleasant to me?
1726SOCRATES: Then as many things as have parts are made up of parts?
1726SOCRATES: Then do we not come back to the old difficulty?
1726SOCRATES: Then false opinion has no existence in us, either in the sphere of being or of knowledge?
1726SOCRATES: Then he who does not know what science or knowledge is, has no knowledge of the art or science of making shoes?
1726SOCRATES: Then he who thinks of that which is not, thinks of nothing?
1726SOCRATES: Then he will think that he has captured knowledge and not ignorance?
1726SOCRATES: Then in predicating the word''all''of things measured by number, we predicate at the same time a singular and a plural?
1726SOCRATES: Then is not the syllable in the same case as the elements or letters, if it has no parts and is one form?
1726SOCRATES: Then it must appear so to each of them?
1726SOCRATES: Then motion is a good, and rest an evil, to the soul as well as to the body?
1726SOCRATES: Then no one can think that which is not, either as a self- existent substance or as a predicate of something else?
1726SOCRATES: Then now let me ask the awful question, which is this:--Can a man know and also not know that which he knows?
1726SOCRATES: Then now we may admit the existence of false opinion in us?
1726SOCRATES: Then now, Theaetetus, take another view of the subject: you answered that knowledge is perception?
1726SOCRATES: Then perception is always of existence, and being the same as knowledge is unerring?
1726SOCRATES: Then perception, Theaetetus, can never be the same as knowledge or science?
1726SOCRATES: Then right opinion implies the perception of differences?
1726SOCRATES: Then the whole is not made up of parts, for it would be the all, if consisting of all the parts?
1726SOCRATES: Then they must be distinguished?
1726SOCRATES: Then to think falsely is different from thinking that which is not?
1726SOCRATES: Then when any one thinks of one thing as another, he is saying to himself that one thing is another?
1726SOCRATES: Then when we were asked what is knowledge, we no more answered what is knowledge than what is not knowledge?
1726SOCRATES: Then wisdom and knowledge are the same?
1726SOCRATES: Then you and Theodorus mean to say that we must look at the matter in some other way?
1726SOCRATES: Then, I suppose, my friend, that we have been so far right in our idea about knowledge?
1726SOCRATES: Then, if that which acts upon me has relation to me and to no other, I and no other am the percipient of it?
1726SOCRATES: Thus, then, the assertion that knowledge and perception are one, involves a manifest impossibility?
1726SOCRATES: We have at length satisfactorily proven beyond a doubt there are these two sorts of opinion?
1726SOCRATES: Well, and shall we do as he says?
1726SOCRATES: Well, and what is the difficulty?
1726SOCRATES: Well, and what is the meaning of the term''explanation''?
1726SOCRATES: Well, but are we to assert that what you think is true to you and false to the ten thousand others?
1726SOCRATES: Well, but have we been right in maintaining that the syllables can be known, but not the letters?
1726SOCRATES: Well, but is there any difference between all( in the plural) and the all( in the singular)?
1726SOCRATES: Well, but will you not be equally inclined to disagree with him, when you remember your own experience in learning to read?
1726SOCRATES: Well, may not a man''possess''and yet not''have''knowledge in the sense of which I am speaking?
1726SOCRATES: Were we not saying that there are agents many and infinite, and patients many and infinite?
1726SOCRATES: What definition will be most consistent with our former views?
1726SOCRATES: What shall we say then?
1726SOCRATES: What was it?
1726SOCRATES: What was that, Theaetetus?
1726SOCRATES: What, then, shall we say of adding reason or explanation to right opinion?
1726SOCRATES: Where, then, is false opinion?
1726SOCRATES: Whereas the other side do not admit that they speak falsely?
1726SOCRATES: Which is probably correct-- for how can there be knowledge apart from definition and true opinion?
1726SOCRATES: Which, as we say, has no part in the attainment of truth any more than of being?
1726SOCRATES: Wisdom; are not men wise in that which they know?
1726SOCRATES: You can further observe whether they are like or unlike one another?
1726SOCRATES: You have heard the common explanation of the verb''to know''?
1726Shall I answer for him?
1726Shall I explain this matter to you or to Theaetetus?
1726Shall we say that the opinions of men are always true, or sometimes true and sometimes false?
1726Shall we say, that although he knows, he comes back to himself to learn what he already knows?
1726Such are the lawyers; will you have the companion picture of philosophers?
1726TERPSION: The dysentery, you mean?
1726TERPSION: The prophecy has certainly been fulfilled; but what was the conversation?
1726TERPSION: Was he alive or dead?
1726TERPSION: Where then?
1726THEAETETUS: About what?
1726THEAETETUS: And do you not agree in that view, Socrates?
1726THEAETETUS: And how would you amend the former statement?
1726THEAETETUS: And is not that, Socrates, nobly said?
1726THEAETETUS: And was that wrong?
1726THEAETETUS: And why should that be shameless?
1726THEAETETUS: As for example, Socrates...?
1726THEAETETUS: But if you avoid these expressions, Socrates, how will you ever argue at all?
1726THEAETETUS: But what puts you out of heart?
1726THEAETETUS: Can you give me any example of such a definition?
1726THEAETETUS: How can he?
1726THEAETETUS: How could it?
1726THEAETETUS: How do the two expressions differ?
1726THEAETETUS: How do you mean?
1726THEAETETUS: How is that, and what profession do you mean?
1726THEAETETUS: How so?
1726THEAETETUS: How?
1726THEAETETUS: I am glad to hear it, Socrates; but what if he was only in jest?
1726THEAETETUS: I should call all of them perceiving-- what other name could be given to them?
1726THEAETETUS: I should reply S and O. SOCRATES: That is the definition which you would give of the syllable?
1726THEAETETUS: In what manner?
1726THEAETETUS: Let us imagine such an aviary-- and what is to follow?
1726THEAETETUS: Pray what is it?
1726THEAETETUS: Tell me; what were you going to say just now, when you asked the question?
1726THEAETETUS: Then what is colour?
1726THEAETETUS: To what are you alluding?
1726THEAETETUS: What are they?
1726THEAETETUS: What are they?
1726THEAETETUS: What are they?
1726THEAETETUS: What do you mean, Socrates?
1726THEAETETUS: What do you mean, Socrates?
1726THEAETETUS: What do you mean?
1726THEAETETUS: What do you mean?
1726THEAETETUS: What do you mean?
1726THEAETETUS: What do you mean?
1726THEAETETUS: What do you mean?
1726THEAETETUS: What experience?
1726THEAETETUS: What hostages?
1726THEAETETUS: What is it?
1726THEAETETUS: What is it?
1726THEAETETUS: What is it?
1726THEAETETUS: What is that?
1726THEAETETUS: What makes you say so?
1726THEAETETUS: What makes you say so?
1726THEAETETUS: What question?
1726THEAETETUS: What was it?
1726THEAETETUS: What?
1726THEAETETUS: What?
1726THEAETETUS: Who indeed, Socrates?
1726THEAETETUS: Who, Socrates, would dare to say so?
1726THEAETETUS: Why?
1726THEAETETUS: You mean that I mistook the letters and misspelt the syllables?
1726THEAETETUS: You mean to compare Socrates in health as a whole, and Socrates in sickness as a whole?
1726THEODORUS: How could I fail to observe all that, Socrates?
1726THEODORUS: How shall we answer, Theaetetus?
1726THEODORUS: How so?
1726THEODORUS: In what is the difference seen?
1726THEODORUS: In what way?
1726THEODORUS: Well, but is not Theaetetus better able to follow a philosophical enquiry than a great many men who have long beards?
1726THEODORUS: What do you mean, Socrates?
1726THEODORUS: What do you mean?
1726THEODORUS: What is it?
1726THEODORUS: What is that?
1726THEODORUS: Who indeed?
1726Tell me, then, are not the organs through which you perceive warm and hard and light and sweet, organs of the body?
1726Tell me, then, what do you think of the notion that"All things are becoming"?''
1726Tell me, then, whether I am right in saying that you may learn a thing which at one time you did not know?
1726The mind, when occupied by herself with being, is said to have opinion-- shall we say that''Knowledge is true opinion''?
1726The multitude may not and do not agree in Protagoras''own thesis that''Man is the measure of all things;''and then who is to decide?
1726They would say, as I imagine-- Can that which is wholly other than something, have the same quality as that from which it differs?
1726Think: is not seeing perceiving, and is not sight perception?
1726Upon his own showing must not his''truth''depend on the number of suffrages, and be more or less true in proportion as he has more or fewer of them?
1726Was that the form in which the dream appeared to you?
1726We are often told that we should enquire into all things before we accept them;--with what limitations is this true?
1726Weary of asking''What is truth?''
1726Well, you ask, and how will Protagoras reinforce his position?
1726Were not you and Theodorus just now remarking very truly, that in discussions of this kind we may take our own time?
1726What are we to say in reply, Theaetetus?
1726What are we to think of time and space?
1726What do they mean when they say that all things are in motion?
1726What say you?
1726What say you?
1726What then is knowledge?
1726What then is knowledge?
1726What then is knowledge?
1726When he says that''knowledge is in perception,''with what does he perceive?
1726Who can divide the nerves or great nervous centres from the mind which uses them?
1726Who can resist an idea which is presented to him in a general form in every moment of his life and of which he finds no instance to the contrary?
1726Who can separate the pains and pleasures of the mind from the pains and pleasures of the body?
1726Who is our judge?
1726Who is the judge or where is the spectator, having a right to control us?''
1726Why should we not go a step further still and doubt the existence of the senses of all things?
1726Why should we single out one of these abstractions to be the a priori condition of all the others?
1726Will you answer me a question:''Is not learning growing wiser about that which you learn?''
1726Will you have the companion picture of the philosopher, who is of our brotherhood; or shall we return to the argument?
1726Without further preface, but at the same time apologizing for his eagerness, he asks,''What is knowledge?''
1726Would an untrained man, for example, be as likely to know when he is going to have a fever, as the physician who attended him?
1726Yes; but did you observe that Protagoras bade me be serious, and complained of our getting up a laugh against him with the aid of a boy?
1726You remember?
1726and another, and another?
1726and of what sort do you mean?
1726and yet, Theaetetus, what are we going to do?
1726and, first of all, are we right in saying that syllables have a definition, but that letters have no definition?
1726can you tell me?
1726do not mistakes often happen?
1726for example, shall we say that not having learned, we do not hear the language of foreigners when they speak to us?
1726for what reason?
1726here are six dice; they are more than four and less than twelve;"more and also less,"would you not say?''
1726or hear and hear nothing?
1726or shall we aver that, seeing them, we must know them?
1726or shall we say that we not only hear, but know what they are saying?
1726or the one which he does not know to be the one which he knows?
1726or touch and touch nothing?
1726or will this be too much of a digression?
1726or will you bear to see him rejected, and not get into a passion if I take away your first- born?
1726or, if he knows neither of them, can he think that the one which he knows not is another which he knows not?
1726or, if he knows one and not the other, can he think the one which he knows to be the one which he does not know?
1726the sound of words or the sight of letters in a foreign tongue?''
1726what is temperance?
1726which of us will speak first?
