  I realized that the theory of objects is based on a big mistake; it can be described as a mix-up of intending and grasping. […] Meinong’s fundamental error is his mistaking the (objective) meaning and content of a thought for an object (or the object) of the thought. […] Once you have realized this, you are done with the theory of objects, and with the foundations of Meinong’s philosophy as well. (Mally 1934a, January 5 1934)
