The richer in determinateness and, therefore, in relationships thoughts become, the more confused and also the more arbitrary and meaningless becomes their representation in such forms as numbers. - Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel (Science of Logic Quotes)

The richer in determinateness and, therefore, in relationships thoughts become, the more confused and also the more arbitrary and meaningless becomes their representation in such forms as numbers.[Je reicher an Bestimmtheit und damit an Beziehung die Gedanken werden, desto verworrener einer Seits und desto willkürlicher und sinnleerer anderer Seits wird ihre Darstellung in solchen Formen, als die Zahlen sind.]
