The Word Reality Frightens Me.

The Idea Of A Universal Mind Or Logos Would Be, I Think, A Fairly Plausible Inference From The Present State Of Scientific Theory.

Unless The Structure Of The Nucleus Has A Surprise In Store For Us, The Conclusion Seems Plain — There Is Nothing In The Whole System Of Laws Of Physics That Cannot Be Deduced Unambiguously From Epistemological Considerations.

To The Pure Geometer The Radius Of Curvature Is An Incidental Characteristic - Like The Grin Of The Cheshire Cat. To The Physicist It Is An Indispensable Characteristic. It Would Be Going Too Far To Say That To The Physicist The Cat Is Merely Incidental To The Grin. Physics Is Concerned With Interrelatedness Such As The Interrelatedness Of Cats And Grins. In This Case The "cat Without A Grin" And The "grin Without A Cat" Are Equally Set Aside As Purely Mathematical Phantasies.

I Believe There Are 15, 747, 724, 136, 275, 002, 577, 605, 653, 961, 181, 555, 468, 044, 717, 914, 527, 116, 709, 366, 231, 425, 076, 185, 631, 031, 296 Protons In The Universe And The Same Number Of Electrons.

The Physical World Is Entirely Abstract And Without Actuality Apart From Its Linkage To Consciousness.
