But though every great distance produces an admiration for the distant object, a distance in time has a more considerable effect than that in space. (1) The cause and effect must be contiguous in space and time. For, if they decide for the first view, and make space and time into substances, this being the side taken by mathematical natural philosophers, they must admit two self-subsisting nonentities, infinite and eternal, which exist (yet without there being anything real) for the purpose of containing in themselves everything that is real. just in the same way did Plato, abandoning the world of sense because of the narrow limits it sets to the understanding, venture upon the wings of ideas beyond it, into the void space of pure intellect. Mathematics, too, treats of the difference of lines and surfaces--as spaces of different quality, of the continuity of extension--as a quality thereof. Private Labeled to me WebMail and Pop3 Service
