changes must be capable of both states. And since that which ‘is’ has two senses, we must say that everything changes from that which is potentially to that which is actually, e.g. from potentially white to actually white, and similarly in the case of increase and diminution. Therefore not only can a thing come to be, incidentally, out of that which is not, but also Andreas Martinsen Jersey all things come to be out of that which is, but is potentially, and is not actually. And this is the ‘One’ of Anaxagoras; for instead of ‘all things were together’-and the ‘Mixture’ of Empedocles and Anaximander and the account given by Chicago Blackhawks Jerseys Democritus-it is better to Classic Czyścibut 5899 say ‘all things were together potentially but not actually’. Therefore these Moncler Szalik & Czapki thinkers seem to have had some notion of matter. Now all things that change have matter, but different matter; and of eternal things those which are not generable but are movable in space have matter-not matter for generation, however, but for motion from one place to another.
One might raise the question from what sort of non-being generation proceeds; for ‘non-being’ has three senses. If, then, one form of non-being exists potentially, still it is not by NHL Mens Nashville Predators Black Rink Warrior Pullover Hoodie virtue of a potentiality for any and every thing, but different things come from different things; nor is it satisfactory to say that ‘all things were together’; Michal Neuvirth Jersey for they differ in their matter, since otherwise why did an infinity of things come to be, and not one thing? For ‘reason’ is one, so that if matter also were one, that must have come to be in actuality which the matter was in potency. The causes and the principles, then, are three, two being the pair of contraries of which one Miehet Nike LunarGlide+4 is definition and form and Belstaff Triumph Kurtki the other is privation, and the third being the matter.
Book XII Chapter 3
Note, next, that neither the matter nor the form comes to be-and I mean the last matter and form. For everything that changes is something and is changed by something and into something. That by which it is changed is the immediate mover; that which is changed, the matter; that into which it is changed, the form. The process, then, will go on to infinity, if not only the bronze comes to be round but also the round or the bronze comes to be; therefore there must be a stop.
Note, next, that each substance comes into being out of something that shares its name. (Natural objects and other things both rank as substances.) For things come into Paul Martin Jersey being either by art or by nature or by luck or by spontaneity. Now art is a principle of movement in something other than the thing moved, nature is a principle in the thing itself (for man begets man), and the other causes are privations of these two.
There are three kinds of substance-the matter, which is a ‘this’ in appearance (for all things that are characterized Danny Gare Jersey by contact and not, by organic unity are matter and substratum, e.g. fire, flesh, head; for these are all matter, and the last matter is the matter The North Face Miehet untuvatakki of that which is in the full sense substance); Glenn Anderson Jersey the nature, which is a ‘this’ or positive stlinks:
