All Things In God Are Spontaneous.

God, Possessing Supreme And Infinite Wisdom, Acts In The Most Perfect Manner, Not Only Metaphysically, But Also Morally Speaking, And ... With Respect To Ourselves, We Can Say That The More Enlightened And Informed We Are About God's Works, The More We Will Be Disposed To Find Them Excellent And In Complete Conformity With What We Might Have Desired.

I Also Readily Admit That There Are Animals, Taken In The Ordinary Sense, That Are Incomparably Larger Than Those We Know Of, And I Have Sometimes Said In Jest That There Might Be A System Like Ours Which Is The Pocketwatch Of Some Enormous Giant.

But In Simple Substances The Influence Of One Monad Over Another Is Ideal Only.

I Am So In Favor Of The Actual Infinite That Instead Of Admitting That Nature Abhors It, As Is Commonly Said, I Hold That Nature Makes Frequent Use Of It Everywhere, In Order To Show More Effectively The Perfections Of Its Author.

Reality Cannot Be Found Except In One Single Source, Because Of The Interconnection Of All Things With One Another. I Maintain Also That Substances, Whether Material Or Immaterial, Cannot Be Conceived In Their Bare Essence Without Any Activity, Activity Being Of The Essence Of Substance In General.
