The mind effortlessly and automatically takes in new ideas, which remain in limbo until verified or rejected by conscious, rational analysis.

But in my opinion, all things in nature occur mathematically.

It is contrary to reasoning to say that there is a vacuum or space in which there is absolutely nothing.

Because reason...is the only thing that makes us men, and distinguishes us from the beasts, I would prefer to believe that it exists, in its entirety, in each of us.

There is a great difference between mind and body insomuch as body is by nature always divisible, and the mind is entirely indivisible.

Sensations are nothing but confused modes of thinking.

Common sense is the most fairly distributed thing in the world, for each one thinks he is so well-endowed with it that even those who are hardest to satisfy in all other matters are not in the habit of desiring more of it than they already have.
