Leibniz


Music is a hidden arithmetic exercise of the soul, which does not know that it is counting.

Letter to Christian Goldbach, April 17, 1712.

There are two kinds of truths: those of reasoning and those of fact. The truths of reasoning are necessary and their opposite is impossible; the truths of fact are contingent and their opposites are possible.
