It follows from what we have just said, that the natural changes of monads come from an internal principle, since an external cause would be unable to influence their inner being. - Gottfried Leibniz

Indeed every monad must be different from every other. For there are never in nature two beings, which are precisely alike, and in which it is not possible to find some difference which is internal, or based on some intrinsic quality. - Gottfried Leibniz

Now where there are no parts, there neither extension, nor shape, nor divisibility is possible. And these monads are the true atoms of nature and, in a word, the elements of things. - Gottfried Leibniz
