2. Reason / B. Laws of Thought / 2. Sufficient Reason

23232	Sufficient reason makes the transition from the particular to the general [Fichte]
	Full Idea: The principle of sufficient reason is the point of transition from the particular, which is itself, to the general, which is outside it.
	From: Johann Fichte (The Vocation of Man [1800], 1)
	A reaction: Not sure I understand this, but it seems worth passing on. Personally I would say that we have a knack of generalising, triggered when we spot patterns.
