This individuality. however just consists both in being the universal, and hence in passively and directly assimilating and blending with the given universals, the customs, habits, etc., thus becoming conformed to them, as also in taking up an attitude of opposition towards them and thus transforming and transmuting them; and again in behaving towards them in its individual character with complete indifference, neither allowing them to exert an influence over it, nor setting itself actively against them.
Baina indibidualtasun hori hain zuzen hau da, era bere an orokor-dena izatea, eta horregatik era bitartegabeko lasai batean eskura dugun orokor-denarekin, ohiturekin, azturekin, eta abarrekin bat egitea eta horien araberakoa bihurtzea, eta, gainera, haiei aurkakotuz jokatzea, eta haiek iraultzea, eta, gainera, haien aurrean euren banakotasunean osorik axolagabe jokatzea, haiei ez uztea bere baitan eragiten, eta haien aurrean ekile ez izatea.
