When farther on Husserl exclaims: "If all masses subject to attraction were to disappear, the law of attraction would not be destroyed but would simply remain without any possible application," I know that I am faced with a metaphysic of consolation.
Husserlek geroago honela idazten duenean: "Erakarpenpeko masa guztiak desagertuko balira, erakarpenaren legea ez litzateke horregatik suntsituko, aitzitik, bera egonean iraunen luke, aplikazio posiblerik gabe", badakit kontsolatzeko metafisika bat dudala aurrean.
