Each man determined to make his way to the city on his own hook, and they considered it was possibly by hook or by crook that they would get there. Oscar and Cad had disappeared. Indeed, the rogues had hardly dared look at each other or speak until the "singulars" had gotten out of sight. Once well away Oscar said: "All right, Cad, I must leave you now to shift for yourself awhile.
Kinds, and sameness of kind what colossally useful DENKMITTEL for finding our way among the many! The manyness might conceivably have been absolute. Experiences might have all been singulars, no one of them occurring twice. In such a world logic would have had no application; for kind and sameness of kind are logic's only instruments.
In such a world of singulars our logic would be useless, for logic works by predicating of the single instance what is true of all its kind. With no two things alike in the world, we should be unable to reason from our past experiences to our future ones.
To such minds the constant zeal they bring to their labour supplies the absence of that inspiration which cannot always be the same, nor always at its height. Industry is the feature by which the ancients so frequently describe an eminent character; such phrases as "incredibili industria; diligentia singulars" are usual.
Those are in prudence of their own who confirm appearances in themselves and make them truths, especially the appearance that one's own prudence is all and divine providence nothing unless it is something universal, which it cannot be without singulars to constitute it, as was shown above.
You are in principles and thereby in singulars; but we are in principiates and composites; you are in particulars, but we are in generals; and as generals cannot enter into particulars, so neither can natural things, which are material, enter into spiritual things which are substantial, any more than a ship's cable can enter into, or be drawn though, the eye of a fine needle; or than a nerve can enter or be let into one of the fibres of which it is composed, or a fibre into one of the fibrils of which it is composed: this also is known in the world: therefore herein the learned are agreed, that there is no such thing as an influx of what is natural into what is spiritual, but of what is spiritual into what is natural.
There are three universals of heaven and three universals of hell, 261. A universal principle exists from, and consists of singulars, 388. If we take away singulars, a universal is a mere name, and is like somewhat superficial, which has no contents within, 388. A universal truth is acknowledged by every intelligent man, 60.
The earth element divides into minerals Mineralogy. These unite into one collective body Geogeny. The whole in singulars is the living, or Organic, which again divides into plants and animals. FIRST KINGDOM. MINERALS. Mineralogy, Geology. Part III. BIOLOGY. Organosophy, Phytogeny, Phyto-physiology, Phytology, Zoogeny, Physiology, Zoology, Psychology.
Some, referring to Columella de Arbor, c. 7, take the word to mean the setting in the earth of a shoot in order that it may take root before being separated from the parent stem. The context, however, is against this interpretation. IRRIGATIONES etc.: the plurals denote more prominently than singulars would the repetition of the actions expressed by these words.
Not always grammatical. All the ass thinks of is whether plurals agree with singulars; he does not care a damn whether the material is good." "That's it," said Gordon. "Masters try to make you imitate, and not think for yourself. 'Mould your Latin verses on Vergil, your Greek prose on Thucydides, your English on Matthew Arnold, but don't think for yourself.
