There must be simple indefinable notions, because the process of analyzing complex notions using simpler ones can't go on forever -- we'll eventually arrive at simple indefinable notions if we keep breaking things down.

This is Moore's argument that analysis can't go on infinitely but must finally result in simple ideas.
