Likewise the idea of man that I frame to myself, must be either of a white } or a black, or a tawny, a straight or a crooked, a tall or a low, or a middle-sized man.

Strana 313 - Nature, by an absolute and uncontrollable necessity, has determined us to judge as well as to breathe and feel...
Strana 58 - The second is the principle of negative syllogisms and is to this effect: that a thing which co-exists with another thing, with which other a third thing does not coexist, is not co-existent with that third thing.
Strana 329 - By the term impression, then, I mean all our more lively perceptions, when we hear, or see, or feel, or love, or hate, or desire, or will. And impressions are distinguished from ideas, which are the less lively perceptions of which we are conscious when we reflect on any of those sensations or movements above mentioned.
