| Each man has his own peculiar character.
| It enters into all he does.  It is in his
| consciousness and not a mere mechanical trick,
| and therefore it is by the principles of the last
| lecture a cognition;  but as it enters into all his
| cognition, it is a cognition of 'things in general'.
| It is therefore the man's philosophy, his way of
| regarding things;  not a philosophy of the head
| alone -- but one which pervades the whole man.
| This idiosyncrasy is the idea of the man, and
| if this idea is true he lives forever;  if false,
| his individual soul has but a contingent existence.
