To say "all that which does not exist" is to introduce, effectively, a new concept, but it does not bring into existence anything more than that very concept which it introduces. That is, a certain entity about which we know nothing except that it bears the name of "all that which does not exist. Pablo Tusset
About This Quote

"All that which does not exist" is the opposite of "all that which does exist" because it is about something which does not exist. The opposite of "all that which does not exist" is "that which does exist." As I said, the opposite of "all that which does not exist" is "that which does exist." Therefore, what can be considered to be true about something that does not exist? What can the existence of an entity that does not exist be based on? The answer is nothing. All things are defined by their own existence, so there is no way to define "that which does not exist" based on anything other than its own existence.
