Not a foundational principle. First what is this: "a". What do you say? or without it "Wht do you sy". But then what is this, these: "yo"? Without them too: "Wht d yu s".

Does "a" exist? What does it mean? Does "a" have to exist for "y" or "o" to exist? There existed before what. That's a statement of fact, not a question.

This is a really dumb quote.
