| 8620 | Thought is the same everywhere, and the laws of thought do not vary [Frege] |
| Full Idea: Thought is in essentials the same everywhere: it is not true that there are different kinds of laws of thought to suit the different kinds of objects thought about. | |
| From: Gottlob Frege (Grundlagen der Arithmetik (Foundations) [1884], Intro) | |
| A reaction: Different kinds of thinker might also be candidates for different laws of thought. I'm unsure of Frege's grounds for this claim; most continental philosophers would probably reject it. |
