Algebra is the metaphysics of arithmetic.

John Ray
Algebra is the metaphysics of arithmetic.

Sean M. Carroll
The idea that time is an illusion is an old one, predating any Times Square ball drop or champagne celebrations. It reaches back to the days of Heraclitus and Parmenides, pre-Socratic thinkers who are staples of introductory philosophy courses.

From this time on, the universe is built up into an aggregate of permanent objects connected by causal relations that are independent of the subject and are placed in objective space and time.

Jean Piaget
From this time on, the universe is built up into an aggregate of permanent objects connected by causal relations that are independent of the subject and are placed in objective space and time.

It is true, there could be a metaphysical world; the absolute possibility of it is hardly to be disputed. We behold all things through the human head and cannot cut off this head; while the question nonetheless remains what of the world would still be there if one had cut it off.

Time itself is an element.

Johann von Goethe
Time itself is an element.

There is one basic cause of all effects.

Giordano Bruno
There is one basic cause of all effects.

Every phenomenon is a corrupt version of another, larger phenomenon: time, a disease of eternity; history, a disease of time; life, again, a disease of matter. Then what is normal, what is healthy?...

Emil M. Cioran The Trouble with...
Every phenomenon is a corrupt version of another, larger phenomenon: time, a disease of eternity; history, a disease of time; life, again, a disease of matter. Then what is normal, what is healthy? Eternity? Which itself is only an infirmity of God.

I do not find theism any more credible than materialism as a comprehensive world view. My interest is in the territory between them.

Thomas Nagel Mind and Cosmos:...
I do not find theism any more credible than materialism as a comprehensive world view. My interest is in the territory between them.

I do not know by what power I think; but well I know that I should never have thought without the assistance of my senses. That there are immaterial and intelligent substances I do not at all doubt;...

Voltaire
I do not know by what power I think; but well I know that I should never have thought without the assistance of my senses. That there are immaterial and intelligent substances I do not at all doubt; but that it is impossible for God to communicate the faculty of thinking to matter, I doubt very much. I revere the Eternal Power, to which it would ill become me to prescribe bounds. I affirm nothing, and am contented to believe that many things are possible than are usually thought so.

I have always thought that all philosophical debates are ultimately between the partisans of structure and the partisans of goo.

If being is many, it must be both like and unlike, and this is impossible, for neither can the like be unlike, nor the unlike like.

Zeno of Citium
If being is many, it must be both like and unlike, and this is impossible, for neither can the like be unlike, nor the unlike like.

The picture of a universe of infinitely many wholly unrelated substances is at least as hard to understand as the monism of Spinoza, and far less easy to reconcile with appearances.

Roger Scruton Spinoza: A Very...

Edwin A. Abbott Flatland: A...
Behold yon miserable creature. That Point is a Being like ourselves, but confined to the non-dimensional Gulf. He is himself his own World, his own Universe; of any other than himself he can form no conception; he knows not Length, nor Breadth, nor Height, for he has had no experience of them; he has no cognizance even of the number Two; nor has he a thought of Plurality, for he is himself his One and All, being really Nothing. Yet mark his perfect self-contentment, and hence learn this lesson, that to be self-contented is to be vile and ignorant, and that to aspire is better than to be blindly and impotently happy.
