of these or of other contraries. Now if the kinds of opposition are contradiction and privation and contrariety and relation, and of these Sveitsi the first is contradiction, and contradiction admits of no intermediate, while contraries admit of one, clearly contradiction and contrariety are not the same. But privation is a kind Aston Villa Børn Fodboldtrøjer of contradiction; for what suffers privation, either in general or in Hamburger some determinate way, either that which is quite incapable of having some attribute or that which, being of such a nature as to have it, has it not; here we have already a variety of meanings, which have been distinguished elsewhere. Privation, therefore, is a contradiction or incapacity which is determinate or taken Werder Bremen along with the receptive material. This is the reason why, while contradiction does not admit of an intermediate, privation sometimes does; for everything is equal or not equal, but not everything is equal or unequal, or if it is, it is only within the sphere of that which is receptive of equality. If, then, the comings-to-be which happen to the matter start from the contraries, and proceed either from the form and the possession of the form or from a privation of the form or shape, clearly all contrariety must be privation, but presumably not all privation is contrariety (the reason being that that has suffered privation may have suffered it in several ways); for it is only the extremes from which changes proceed that are contraries.
And this is obvious also by induction. For every contrariety involves, as one of its terms, a privation, but not all cases are alike; inequality is the privation of equality and unlikeness of likeness, Hungary Pelipaidat and on the other hand vice is the privation of virtue. But the cases differ in a way already described; in one case we mean simply that the thing has suffered privation, in another case that it has done so either at a certain time or in a certain part (e.g. at a certain age or in the dominant part), or throughout. This is why in some cases there is a mean (there are men who are neither good nor bad), and in others there is not (a number must be either odd or even). Further, some contraries have their subject defined, others have not. Therefore it is evident that one of the contraries is always privative; but it is enough if this is true of the first-i.e. the generic-contraries, e.g. the one and the many; for the others can be reduced to these.

Since one thing has one contrary, we might raise the question how the one is Dame opposed to the many, and the equal to the great and the Meksiko Pelipaidat small. For if we used the word ‘whether’ only in an antithesis such as ‘whether it is white or black’, or ‘whether it is white or not white’ (we do not ask ‘whether it is a man or white’), unless Herre Parajumpers Right Hand Parka we are proceeding on a prior assumption and asking something such as ‘whether it Peru Fodboldtrøjer was Cleon or Tottenham Socrates that came’ as this is not a necessary disjunction in any class of things; Naisten Dortmund Pelipaidat yet even this is an extension from the case of opposites; for opposites alone cannot be present together; and wlinks:
