Good Tuesday Morning!
1. Question – Aren’t we all – and everything in this world – so so so ‘Unique?’
2. Thought – Then there is the opposite attack on thought: that urged by Mr. H. G. Wells when he insists that every separate thing is “unique,” and there are no categories at all. This also is merely destructive. Thinking means connecting things, and stops if they cannot be connected. It need hardly be said that this skepticism forbidding thought necessarily forbids speech; a man cannot open his mouth without contradicting it. Thus when Mr. wells says (as he did somewhere), “all chairs are quite different,” he utters not merely a misstatement, but a contradiction in terms. If all chairs were quite different, you could not call them “all chairs.” (Orthodoxy by G.K. Chesterton)
“Thinking is difficult, that’s why most people judge.” (Carl Gustav Jung)
