Excerpt from Brownson's Quarterly Review, Vol. 5: January, 1851-October, 1851 No man can assert three persons, meaning three conscious nesses, wills, and understandings, and still have any intelligent meaning in his mind, when he asserts that they are yet one person. For, as he now uses the term, the very idea of a person is that of an essential, incommunicable monad, bounded by consciousness, and vitalized by self-active will, which being true, he might as well profess to hold that three units are yet one unit. When he does it, his words will, of necessity, be only substitutes for sense. Pp. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
