Human Beings & Complex Universe:
"but they are really separate principles. There really is a number one, and there is a number two. The prime numbers are unique behaviors. There is a minimum of a fourness of vertices of that insideness and outsideness in order to have a system and to have thinkability. Where there are four points there are six relationships between them. So the number six brings in the prime number three–and the prime number two is in the vertexes. Prime numbers are unique to what I call primitive experience and minimum experience.
"You can’t have a system of less than four points that divide the Universe into insideness and outsideness of the system. The number four is the beginning number and not the number one. Unity is plural and at minimum two. There is a minimum of four vertexes, a minimum of six basic relationships that are the tetrahedron: the six degrees of freedom each have a positive and a negative so you have the twelve degrees of freedom right there.
“A little child represents the human being designed by Universe to have the very important function of being a local information gatherer and a local problem-solver, and gathering that information in greater and greater ways from the”
