Väitöksessään Quaecumque ab Aristotele dicta essent, commentitia esse vuonna 1536 Ramus esitti Walter J. Ongin muotoilemana, että "kaikki asiat, mitä Aristoteles on sanonut, ovat epäjohdonmukaisia, koska ne on systematisoitu huonosti ja voidaan palauttaa mieleen ainoastaan mielivaltaisia muistitekniikoita käyttämällä" (Ong, Ramus, Method, and the Decay of Dialogue: From the Art of Discourse to the Art of Reason, 1958: 46–47).
On the occasion of receiving his degree in 1536, Ramus allegedly took as his thesis Quaecumque ab Aristotele dicta essent, commentitia esse, which Walter J. Ong paraphrases as follows: "All the things that Aristotle has said are inconsistent because they are poorly systematized and can be called to mind only by the use of arbitrary mnemonic devices."
