But these people seem to have no insight into the metaphysics of things and thoughts and to forget that the abuse are nothing is good in and by itself. It is dif the use and abuse of things and powers with us that are either good or bad. There is nothing as freaks of nature in our philosophy. What is in the root must come out in the sap.

If the fall of the apple, before the eyes of Newton who deduced thereof the universal law of gravitation whereby all what is earthly is drawn towards the earth, were but a freak of nature, how things of the world would stand?
