Our whole life, all the points of interest of our life are in objects that are found at a certain time in certain states. The objects themselves are different by the places they occupy in space, and space is infinite and therefore objects are equal, that is, they represent nothing in relation to the infinity of space, a / ∞. Likewise with the temporal states of objects: they are nothing compared to the infinity of time. Therefore, what we mean by infinity and what we call infinity is only an indication that everything material and personal in our life is illusory, unreal.

Romanian

"Întreaga noastra viață, toate punctele de interes ale vieții noastre se află în obiecte care se găsesc un anumit timp în anumite stări. Obiectele însele sunt diferite prin locurile pe care le ocupă în spațiu, iar spațiul este infinit și de aceea obiectele sunt egale, adica nu reprezintă nimic în raport cu infinitul spațiului, a / ∞. La fel și cu stările temporale ale obiectelor: sunt nimic în raport cu infinitul timpului. Prin urmare, ce înțelegem prin infinit și numim infinit nu-i decât un indiciu că tot ce e material și personal în viața noastră e iluzoriu, ireal."
