Of contradictions infinite the slave.

Wordsworth.

Principle of contradiction (Logic),
the axiom or law of thought that a thing cannot be and
not be at the same time, or a thing must either be or not
be, or the same attribute can not at the same time be affirmed
and and denied of the same subject. It develops itself in
three specific forms which have been called the "Three Logical
Axioms." First, "A is A." Second, "A is not Not-A"
Third, "Everything is either A or Not-A."
