ACR Paragraph, Synytsia, Maya, A2.

Gottfried Leibniz distinguished between two kinds of true propositions:  the truths of reason (a priori) and the truths of fact (empiric). Being a rationalist, he claims that while the truths of fact are purely circumstantial, the primary truths of reason are fixated in the logical structure of all possible worlds, thus being the basic truths. From the empirical point of view, however, the truths of reason should be initial, and the axioms (the truths of reason) should be inducted from them. Leibniz states that the truths of fact are always formulated with the help of logical structures; therefore, feelings themselves are unable to ensure the existence of sensual things. Thus, only reason can be the source of veracity.
