Existence is a risk, but non-existence is also a risk.
Existence is not its own justification.
The propensity to truck, barter, and exchange one thing for another is common to all men, and to be found in no other race of animals.
To exist is to have a subjective existence.
The question is not whether the thing exists, but whether it has any essence which is capable of existence without us.
All the choir of heaven and furniture of earth - in a word, all those bodies which compose the frame of the world - have not any subsistence without a mind.
The only existence we conceive is the existence of sensible things.
It is indeed an opinion strangely prevailing amongst men, that houses, mountains, rivers, and in a word all sensible objects, have an existence, natural or real, distinct from their being perceived by the understanding.
All the choir of heaven and furniture of earth - in a word, all those bodies which compose the frame of the world - have not any subsistence without a mind.
That neither our thoughts, nor passions, nor ideas formed by the imagination, exist without the mind, is what every body will allow.
