Quote from ‘Pragmatism Made Easy’
Term:
Quote:
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.
