To understand any material object, no matter what, we need to know its origin, the cause of its appearance and its relation to other objects. But the origin and cause of the appearance of any material object is lost in infinite time. Likewise, its relation to other objects is difficult to determine, because all objects decompose into infinitely small objects and expand to infinitely large objects. Therefore, we can know neither the origin nor the cause of the appearance of objects, nor their relation to other objects.

Romanian

"Pentru a înțelege orice obiect material, indiferent care, trebuie să-i cunoaștem obârșia, cauza apariției și raportul lui cu alte obiecte. Însă obârșia și cauza apariției oricărui obiect material se pierd în timpul infinit. La fel și raportul lui cu alte obiecte este greu de stabilit, fiindcă toate obiectele se descompun în obiecte infinit mici și se extind până la obiecte infinit mari. Prin urmare, nu putem cunoaște nici obârșia, nici cauza apariției obiectelor, nici raportul lor cu alte obiecte."
