10. Modality / B. Possibility / 1. Possibility

14786	Some logical possibility concerns single propositions, but there is also compatibility between propositions [Peirce]
	Full Idea: Many say everything is logically possible which involves no contradiction. In this sense two contradictory propositions may be severally possible. In the substantive sense, the contradictory of a possible proposition is impossible (if we were omniscient).
	From: Charles Sanders Peirce (The Nature of Mathematics [1898], III)
