The Past Is Pregnant With The Present.

Reality Cannot Be Found Except In One Single Source, Because Of The Interconnection Of All Things With One Another. I Maintain Also That Substances, Whether Material Or Immaterial, Cannot Be Conceived In Their Bare Essence Without Any Activity, Activity Being Of The Essence Of Substance In General.

God, Possessing Supreme And Infinite Wisdom, Acts In The Most Perfect Manner, Not Only Metaphysically, But Also Morally Speaking, And ... With Respect To Ourselves, We Can Say That The More Enlightened And Informed We Are About God's Works, The More We Will Be Disposed To Find Them Excellent And In Complete Conformity With What We Might Have Desired.

To Love Is To Find Pleasure In The Happiness Of Others.

I Do Not Believe That A World Without Evil, Preferable In Order To Ours, Is Possible; Otherwise It Would Have Been Preferred. It Is Necessary To Believe That The Mixture Of Evil Has Produced The Greatest Possible Good: Otherwise The Evil Would Not Have Been Permitted. The Combination Of All The Tendencies To The Good Has Produced The Best; But As There Are Goods That Are Incompatible Together, This Combination And This Result Can Introduce The Destruction Of Some Good, And As A Result Some Evil.

The Present Is Great With The Future.
