"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."
Being

"I maintain also that substances, whether material or immaterial, cannot be conceived in their bare essence without any activity, activity being of the essence of substance in general."

Nature

"For since it is impossible for a created monad to have a physical influence on the inner nature of another, this is the only way in which one can be dependent on another."
Nature

"Finally there are simple ideas of which no definition can be given; there are also axioms or postulates, or in a word primary principles, which cannot be proved and have no need of proof."
Creativity

"I also take it as granted that every created thing, and consequently the created monad also, is subject to change, and indeed that this change is continual in each one."
Change
