Zitat

Veröffentlicht am von

„God therefore possesses an attribute, the conception of which is involved in all individual thoughts, and through which they are conceived. Thought, therefore, is one of the infinite attributes of God which expresses the eternal and infinite essence of God or, in other words, God is a thinking thing.“ (Second Part, Chap. IX, The Mind of God) #Spinoza #God

Spinoza: The Power of God

Zitat

Veröffentlicht am von

„God can think an infinitude of things in infinite ways, or (which is the same thing) can form an idea of His essence and of all the things which necessarily follow from it. But everything which is in the power of God is necessary. Therefore in God there necessarily exists the idea of His essence, and of all things which necessarily follow from His essence.“ (Second Part, Chap. IX, The Mind of God) #Spinoza #PowerOfGod

Spinoza: Conception

Zitat

Veröffentlicht am von

„I use the word conception rather than perception because the name perception seems to indicate that the mind is passive in its relation to the object. But the word conception seems to express the action of the mind.“ (Second Part, Chap. IX, III) #Spinoza #conception
