Art and logic both involve the arrangement of differences and samenesses.

In logic, relation shows where things have to do with each other, while in art, relation shows how objects have to do with each other.

Logic gets to truth by showing that if two individuals are in the same country and were born there, they likely have something in common.

In art, showing the relation among different objects is similar to showing the relation among different individuals in logic.

Both art and logic involve addition and subtraction in the process of showing relations.

The text suggests that both logic and art rely on the perception of differences and samenesses in reality and in one's mind.
