2. Reason / B. Laws of Thought / 1. Laws of Thought
The laws of reality are also the laws of thought [Feuerbach]
     Full Idea: The laws of reality are also the laws of thought.
     From: Ludwig Feuerbach (Principles of Philosophy of the Future [1843], §45)
     A reaction: I like this a lot, though it runs contrary to a lot of conventionalist thinking in the twentieth century. Russell, though, agrees with Feuerbach (Idea 5405). There is not much point to thought if it doesn't plug into reality at the roots.
