Eventual Interpretant
Quote: 

The Eventual Interpretant of Sign is all that General Truth that it destines, in view of the other general truths of the universe, conditionally upon its full acceptance. It is the sum and substance of all the real difference that its acceptance will make. [—] Any Eventual Interpretant must be of the nature of a Habit or Law.
