What I Assert And Believe To Have Demonstrated In This And Earlier Works Is That Following The Finite There Is A Transfinite (which One Could Also Call The Supra-finite), That Is An Unbounded Ascending Lader Of Definite Modes, Which By Their Nature Are Not Finite But Infinite, But Which Just Like The Finite Can Be Determined By Well-defined And Distinguishable Numbers.

I Entertain No Doubts As To The Truths Of The Tranfinites, Which I Recognized With God's Help And Which, In Their Diversity, I Have Studied For More Than Twenty Years; Every Year, And Almost Every Day Brings Me Further In This Science.

This View [of The Infinite], Which I Consider To Be The Sole Correct One, Is Held By Only A Few. While Possibly I Am The Very First In History To Take This Position So Explicitly, With All Of Its Logical Consequences, I Know For Sure That I Shall Not Be The Last!
