All credibility, all good conscience, all evidence of truth come only from the senses.

The more abstract the truth you wish to teach, the more you must allure the senses to it

The sting of conscience, like the gnawing of a dog at a bone, is mere foolishness

The bite of conscience, like the bite of a dog into a stone, is a stupidity.

History is nothing more than the belief in the senses, the belief in falsehood.

''Reason'' is the cause of our falsification of the evidence of the senses. In so far as the senses show becoming, passing away, change, they do not lie.
