Die Person muß sich eine äußere Sphäre ihrer Freiheit geben, um als Idee zu sein. - Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel

Las representaciones dadas por la sensación y la intuición son, según su contenido, algo plural, y también
lo son igualmente según su forma, es decir, por la exterioridad recíproca
de la sensibilidad en sus dos formas, espacio y tiempo, las cuales en
cuanto formas (o lo universal) del intuir son ellas mismas a priori. Eso
plural del sensar e intuir es conducido a identidad, a una conexión originaria,
en tanto que el yo lo refiere a sí mismo y lo une a sí en tanto conciencia
una (apercepción pura). Las maneras determinadas de ese referir
son los conceptos puros del entendimiento, las categorías.

That man should think of God as nothingness must at first sight seem astonishing, must appear to us a most peculiar idea. But, considered more closely, this determination means that God is absolutely nothing determined. He is the Undetermined; no determinateness of any kind pertains to God; He is the Infinite. This is equivalent to saying that God is the negation of all particularity.

It has been said that the French revolution resulted from philosophy, and it is not without reason that philosophy has been called Weltweisheit [world wisdom]; for it is not only truth in and for itself, as the pure essence of things, but also truth in its living form as exhibited in the affairs of the world. We should not, therefore, contradict the assertion that the revolution received its first impulse from philosophy.

Never since the sun had stood in the firmament and the planets revolved around him had it been perceived that man's existence centres in his head, i.e. in thought, inspired by which he builds up the world of reality. Not until now had man advanced to the recognition of the principle that thought ought to govern spiritual reality. This was accordingly a glorious mental dawn. All thinking being shared in the jubilation of this epoch. Emotions of a lofty character stirred men's minds at that time; a spiritual enthusiasm thrilled through the world, as if the reconciliation between the divine and the secular was now first accomplished.
