Synopsis
Excerpt from The First Six Books of the Elements of Euclid: And Propositions I-XXI
A geometrical magnitude which has three dimensions, that is, length, breadth, and thickness, is a solid; that which has two dimensions, such as length and breadth, is a surface; and that which has but one dimension is a line. But a point is neither a solid, nor a surface, nor a line; hence it has no dimensions - that is, it has neither length, breadth, nor thickness.
