 Pseudo-Dionysius the Areopagite in the 6th century, argued for the existence of "non-privatives" which transcend both affirmation and denial.For example, it is not quite correct to affirm that God is, nor to deny that God moves, but rather one should say that God is beyond-motion, or super-motive, and this is intended not just as a special kind of affirmation or denial, but a third move besides affirmation and denial.For Kant every judgment takes one of three possible logical qualities, Affirmative, Negative or Infinite.
