these at least are not separable substances,Gareth Bale Drakt, but sections and divisions-the former of surfaces,Red Bull Drakt, the latter of bodies (while points are sections and divisions of lines); and further they are limits of these same things; and all these are in other things and none is separable. Further, how are we to suppose that there is a substance of unity and the point? Every substance comes into being by a gradual process, but a point does not; for the point is a division.
A further difficulty is raised by the fact that all knowledge is of universals and of the ‘such’,Menn Moncler Baptiste, but substance is not a universal,Parajumpers Herreklær Jakke, but is rather a ‘this’-a separable thing, so that if there is knowledge about the first principles,Canada Goose Expedition Parka, the question arises, how are we to suppose the first principle to be substance?
Further,PJS Dameklær Alisee' 6 Parkas, is there anything apart from the concrete thing (by which I mean the matter and that which is joined with it),Dame Moncler Mabel, or not? If not, we are met by the objection that all things that are in matter are perishable. But if there is something, it must be the form or shape. Now it is hard to determine in which cases this exists apart and in which it does not; for in some cases the form is evidently not separable,Everton Drakt, e.g. in the case of a house.
Further,Menn Moncler Cezanne, are the principles the same in kind or in number? If they are one in number, all things will be the same.
Book XI Chapter 3
Since the science of the philosopher treats of being qua being universally and not in respect of a part of it, and ‘being’ has many senses and is not used in one only, it follows that if the word is used equivocally and in virtue of nothing common to its various uses,Colombia Drakt Damer, being does not fall under one science (for the meanings of an equivocal term do not form one genus); but if the word is used in virtue of something common, being will fall under one science. The term seems to be used in the way we have mentioned, like ‘medical’ and ‘healthy’. For each of these also we use in many senses. Terms are used in this way by virtue of some kind of reference, in the one case to medical science,Duvetica Ženy Thiacinque, in the other to health, in others to something else, but in each case to one identical concept. For a discussion and a knife are called medical because the former proceeds from medical science, and the latter is useful to it. And a thing is called healthy in a similar way; one thing because it is indicative of health, another because it is productive of it. And the same is true in the other cases. Everything that is, then, is said to ‘be’ in this same way; each thing that is is said to ‘be’ because it is a modification of being qua being or a permanent or a transient state or a movement of it, or something else of the sort. And since everything that is may be referred to something single and common, each of the contrarieties also may be referred to the first differences and contrarieties of being, whether the first differences of being are plurality and unity,Blake Griffin Drakter, or likeness and unlikeness, or some other differences; let these be taken as already discussed. It makes no differen
