'We understand the meaning of an individual word by seeing it in reference to the whole sentence; and reciprocally, the sentence’s meaning as a whole is dependent on the meaning of individual words. By extension, an individual concept derives its meaning from a context or horizon within which it stands; yet the horizon is made up of the very elements to which it gives meaning ... understanding is circular then' – Joseph Kosuth
