For example, there 4 Pre, Int, 7 | the rest, does frame the abstract ideas of extension, colour, 5 Pre, Int, 8 | common, making thereof a most abstract idea of extension, which 6 Pre, Int, 8 | makes an idea of colour in abstract which is neither red, nor 7 Pre, Int, 8 | directions and velocities, the abstract idea of motion is framed; 8 Pre, Int, 9 | the mind frames to itself abstract ideas of qualities or modes, 9 Pre, Int, 9 | mental separation, attain abstract ideas of the more compounded 10 Pre, Int, 9 | to all, and so makes an abstract idea wherein all the particulars 11 Pre, Int, 9 | it is said we come by the abstract idea of man, or, if you 12 Pre, Int, 9 | constituent parts of the abstract idea of animal are body, 13 Pre, Int, 9 | that reason left out of the abstract idea. Upon the same account 14 Pre, Int, 10 | of thought conceive the abstract idea above described. And 15 Pre, Int, 10 | impossible for me to form the abstract idea of motion distinct 16 Pre, Int, 10 | may be said of all other abstract general ideas whatsoever. 17 Pre, Int, 10 | plain, I own myself able to abstract in one sense, as when I 18 Pre, Int, 10 | them. But I deny that I can abstract from one another, or conceive 19 Pre, Int, 10 | illiterate never pretend to abstract notions. It is said they 20 Pre, Int, 11 | seeming to think the having abstract general ideas is what puts 21 Pre, Int, 11 | grounds to think brutes have abstract general ideas is, that we 22 Pre, Int, 11 | use language are able to abstract or generalize their ideas. 23 Pre, Int, 11 | made the sign, not of an abstract general idea, but of several 24 Pre, Int, 11 | that I must conceive an abstract general idea of extension, 25 Pre, Int, 12 | only that there are any abstract general ideas; for, in the 26 Pre, Int, 12 | its being the sign of an abstract or general line, but of 27 Pre, Int, 13 | clearer view of the nature of abstract ideas, and the uses they 28 Pre, Int, 13 | 9) which is as follows: "Abstract ideas are not so obvious 29 Pre, Int, 13 | is yet none of the most abstract, comprehensive, and difficult); 30 Pre, Int, 13 | enough to show that the most abstract and general ideas are not 31 Pre, Int, 14 | said of the difficulty that abstract ideas carry with them, and 32 Pre, Int, 14 | that are conversant about abstract ideas. From all which the 33 Pre, Int, 14 | difficult a thing as the forming abstract ideas was not necessary 34 Pre, Int, 14 | multiplied labour of framing abstract notions will be found a 35 Pre, Int, 14 | so framed in their minds abstract general ideas, and annexed 36 Pre, Int, 16 | seen it demonstrated of the abstract idea of a triangle which 37 Pre, Int, 16 | all demonstrate it of the abstract idea of a triangle, in which 38 Pre, Int, 16 | demonstrated the proposition of the abstract idea of a triangle And here 39 Pre, Int, 16 | the sides.
