This Schelling terms quantitative difference: the phenomena of nature, like the phenomena of spirit, are a unity of the real and the ideal, only that in the former there is a preponderance of the real, in the latter a preponderance of the ideal.

The phenomena of the seasons, of the trade winds, of the Gulf-stream, are as much the results of the reaction between these inner activities and outward forces, as are the budding of the leaves in spring and their falling in autumn the effects of the interaction between the organisation of a plant and the solar light and heat.

The phenomena of nature are a system of things which co-exist and follow each other according to invariable laws.

All phenomena are a succession of causes and effects.

If self-abnegation lies at the root of true heroism, Charles Lambthat "sorry phenomenon" with an "insuperable proclivity to gin" was a greater hero than was covered by the shield of Achilles.

All phenomena are continuous quantities, i.e., all their parts are in turn (further divisible) quantities.

That the phenomena were facts, and facts explicable by no known natural law, he was forced, like others in similar positions, to believe and admit.

But, apart from the vein of jocularity running through these remarks, such striking vegetable phenomena are scientifically as great a puzzle to the botanist as their movements are to the savage, the latter regarding them as the outward visible expression of a real inward personal existence.

Each new phenomenon is a discovery in the child's small and yet rich world, e.g. one may go round the chair; one may stand before it, behind it, but one cannot go behind the bench or the wall.
