So, also, when it considers whiteness, softness, virtue, existence, as separate from any particular objects. [ 1913 Webster] Note: Abstraction is necessary to classification, by which things are arranged in genera and species. We separate in idea the qualities of certain objects, which are of the same kind, from others which are different, in each, and arrange the objects having the same properties in a class, or collected body. [ 1913 Webster] Abstraction is no positive act: it is simply the negative of attention. -- Sir W. Hamilton. [ 1913 Webster] 3.
