5. Theory of Logic / C. Ontology of Logic / 1. Ontology of Logic
The only classes are things, predicates and relations [Russell]
     Full Idea: The only classes appear to be things, predicates and relations.
     From: Bertrand Russell (The Principles of Mathematics [1903], §440)
     A reaction: This is the first-order logic view of reality, which has begun to look incredibly impoverished in modern times. Processes certainly demand a hearing, as do modal facts.
