Kant, Immanuel (1742-1804): Being is not a predicate.
Kant peers beyond the window of the phenomenal world and sees nothing.
Kierkegaard on Hegel: If you marry, you will regret it; if you do not, you will also regret it; whether you marry or do not marry, you will regret both. Laugh at the world's windows, you will regret it; weep over them, you will regret that; laugh at the world's windows or weep over them, you will regret both...Believe a wolf, you will regret it, believe a wolf not, you will regret it; believe a wolf or believe it not, you will regret both...hang a wolf, you will regret it, do not hang a wolf and you will regret that; hang a wolf or do not hang a wolf, you will regret both. This, friend, is the sum and substance of all philosophy.
Kurrent discoveries of postmodern art and criticism regarding the analogical structures of images demonstrate that when two objects are brought together, no matter how far apart their contexts may be, a relationship is formed. Restricting oneself to a personal relationship of words is mere convention. The bringing together of two independent expressions supersedes the original elements and produces a synthetic organization of greater possibility.
