'If the knowledge of God were kept from us in order that we should know only the finite and not attain to the infinite, God would be a jealous God, or God would then become an empty name. Such talk means no more than that we wish to neglect what is higher and divine and seek after our own petty interests and opinions. This humility is sin — the sin against the Holy Ghost.'

Justice in itself is ordinarily represented by us in the form of a natural right, right in a condition of nature; such a condition of nature is a direct moral impossibility. That which is in itself is held to be something natural, as innate ideas. The natural is rather what should be sublated by the mind, and the justice of the condition of nature can only emerge as the absolute injustice of the mind.

Hegel's own theory of concrete universals is making me think about Hegel instead of Plato.

I cannot be sure yet if it's just Hegel presentation of it, but the Platonic theory of recollection is just splendid.
