 * Out from or without the Limit, Something is necessarily unlimited. Unlimited Something is simply Nessness quite generally — unlimited So-ness (There-being). But the Other is situated precisely similarly: it, too, is simply So-ness, simply Nessness, and without end. Either can be called Something, either can be called Other; but they possess not a single distinction, the one from the other: each is simply Nessness — that and nothing else. They are both, therefore, the same thing.

 * But, Socrates, I have to confess I can make quite a mess of the essence of ness — the very nessness of ness, if you please.

 * In Eckhart, as in Eriugena, we find a God who is not only unnameable and unthinkable, but also a gotheit that is unknown to got himself.⁴⁹ What remains after the silence is the nessness of things (the permutations of ‘less’ and ‘ness’ are both endless and irrelevant) […]

 * In other words, use eco only when you wish to accentuate the abstractness, the “nessness” of the idea.

 * Probably a typographical error for newness
 * 1913: University of California Chronicle, volume 15, page 443 (University of California Press)
 * But unhappily the newness of a moment quâ existence by no means entails the qualitative novelty of its concrete content — for example, the sensations and feelings which are said to be present in it; and it is about nessness of content that we are most concerned.
