In the future, opportunity will arise where I will further elaborate on these matters for those who are insatiable for rules original: "Regeln", and I shall expand them with much that belongs to those who wish to go further than is commonly done. For now, I content myself with that which is most necessary, especially since, regardless of that, in the attainment of truth Erkäntnis der Wahrheit; the process of acquiring certain knowledge through the correct application of the intellect, it does not depend on many rules, but rather on the frequent use of a few rules. Practice original: "Ubung" must do more than rules. He who learns to use a few rules correctly can, after this, find more for himself when he has need of them. Whoever studies algebra Algebra; in Wolff's time, this was seen not just as math, but as a method for solving problems by substituting symbols for unknown values, serving as a model for logical precision in such a way as I am accustomed to presenting it, will immediately give full credence to my words; and others will, in time, be convinced through experience that I speak the truth: which I heartily wish for everyone who thirsts for truth.
