" To this question "Is there anything" St. Thomas begins by answering "Yes"; if he began by answering "No", it would not be the beginning but the end. This is what some of us call common sense. Either there is no philosophy, no philosopher, no thinkers, no thought, no anything; or else there is a real bridge between the mind and reality. (chapter 6) "
― G.K. Chesterton , Saint Thomas Aquinas
