Excerpt from Pure Thought and the Riddle of the Universe, Vol. 1: Creation of Heaven and Earth

Pure thinking must be distinguished from what ordinarily passes for thinking. The ordinary think ing may be characterised as loose, because it lacks continuity. The objects with which it concerns itself are picked up in a more or less haphazard manner. One turns his attention now to this one, now to that one, for no other reason than that it too is to be in cluded among the subjects which it behoves an intelligent man to know something about. The band unifying them is indeed our common hunger for knowledge; but by knowledge is meant so far simply a mass of information about anything and everything that somehow or other comes to hand.
