Certainty is dual to uncertainty (doubt) -- the Heisenberg certainty/uncertainty principle. Deductive knowledge is dual to inductive knowledge. "Imagination is more important than knowledge" -- Einstein.

Logical knowledge is dual to empirical knowledge -- knowledge is dual. Noumenal (rational, analytic) is dual to phenomenal (empirical, synthetic) -- Immanuel Kant. Thesis is dual to anti-thesis -- the time independent Hegelian dialectic.

"I think, therefore I am" is not correct. "I think, therefore a thought exists" is better.

@tedgrant2 3 жыл бұрын

"There is a thought" is even better. "I think I am thinking" actually means "There is a thought, the subject of which is 'thinking'".
