…cognition is a consciousness of a sign, and is a triple consciousness of the sign, of the real object cognized, and of the meaning, or interpretation, of the sign which the cognition connects with the object.
…feelings always arise as predicates of single objects; and it is only by subsequent reflexion, which is not Feeling, that they may become connected with two or more objects.
…in perception there is a double consciousness of an ego and a non-ego.
In volition […] there is always a double consciousness, the volition being at once regarded as an effort of one subject and a resistance of another. Likewise in perception there is a double consciousness of an ego and a non-ego. Thus there is a double consciousness which ought to replace the narrower volition of the old divisions of consciousness.
