While Deleuze's virtual ideas superficially resemble Plato's forms and Kant's ideas of pure reason, they are not originals or models, nor do they transcend possible experience; instead they are the conditions of actual experience, the internal difference in itself.
Dok Delezove virtuelne ideje površno podsećaju na Platonove forme i Kantove ideje čistog uma, one nisu originali ili modeli, niti su nadmašili postojeće iskustvo; umesto toga, one su uslovi stvarnog iskustva, unutrašnje razlike u sebi.
