The will contains [a] the element of pure indeterminateness, i.e.,
the pure doubling of the I back in thought upon itself. In this process
every limit or content, present though it be directly by way of nature,
as in want, appetite or impulse, or given in any specific way, is
dissolved. Thus we have the limitless infinitude of absolute
abstraction, or universality, the pure thought of itself.
