Ideas without which Reason (rationality) is not
I would probably go for (literally):
Sententiae, sine quibus Ratio non est
If you gave me a fuller sentence, I might be able to do a little more polished job with that, but that will definitely work.
Welcome here!!

- Ratio is both reason and reasoning. reasoning at Words There is a word rationabilitas, but that's more the abstract ability, than the actual conrete reasoning. You might intensify ratio with an ipsa or an illa, but I think it is your best word. Cheers!--Ioshus (disp) 16:10, 15 Aprilis 2007 (UTC)
- One more thing... idea is actually a Greek word, and it's use in Latin, while existent, is extremely rare. You might interested to know it's etymology. It's from PIE *weid, which is the stem for to see. Originally it passed into Greek with a digamma (I will substitute a W for digamma) ἐWείδον. This eventually moved to, when digamma dropped out, what is now the aorist of ὀράω, εἴδον. This is exactly cognate with Latin's videre (the V being pronounced exactly like the Greek digamma). So an idea is really just a "vision", in it's most basic sense. Sententia is usually the Latin equivalent in popular usage. Nifty huh? =] --Ioshus (disp) 16:22, 15 Aprilis 2007 (UTC)
