Susanne Kriemann Reading 5.5423: To Perceive a Complex Means to Perceive That Its Constituents Are Related to One Another in Such and Such Way. This No Doubt Also Explains Why There Are Two Possible Ways of Seeing the Figure as a Cube; and All Similar Phenomena. For We Really See Two Different Facts. (If I Look in the First Place at the Corners Marked A and Only Glance at the B's, Then the A's Appear to be in Front, and Vice Versa)

Joachim Schmid Reading 6.51: Skepticism Is Not Irrefutable, but Obviously Nonsensical, When It Tries to Raise Doubts Where No Questions Can Be Asked. For Doubt Can Exist Only Where a Question Exists, a Question Only Where an Answer Exists, and an Answer Only Where Something Can Be Said
