  18   1, 3   |           into actuality only by some being in ~actuality. Now it has
  19   1, 3   |          proved that God is the First Being. It ~is therefore impossible

  22   1, 3   |              nothing added to it. Now being to ~which no addition is
  23   1, 3   |         addition is made is universal being which is predicated of all ~

  25   1, 3   |                is not existence, is a being by participation. But God
  26   1, 3   |           essential, but participated being. He will not therefore ~
  27   1, 3   |               therefore ~be the first being - which is absurd. Therefore
  28   1, 3   |            reason. And so the ~divine being has nothing added to it
  29   1, 3   |             sense; whereas ~universal being has nothing added to it
  30   1, 3   |          genus. For a substance is a ~being that subsists of itself.
  31   1, 3   |        contained under a genus; or as being reducible ~to it, as principles

  33   1, 3   |                He would be the genus "being", ~because, since genus
  34   1, 3   |             shown (Metaph. iii) that ~being cannot be a genus, for every
  35   1, 3   |               can exist distinct from being; for ~non-being cannot be

  39   1, 3   |               God is absolute ~primal being, there can be in Him nothing

  43   1, 3   |             form, or rather ~absolute being, He can be in no way composite.
  44   1, 3   |           says (Coel. Hier. iv): "The being of all things is that ~which

  78   1, 5   |      consequence, said simply to have being, accordingly as it ~is primarily
  79   1, 5   |              each thing's substantial being. Hence by its ~substantial

  81   1, 5   |            everything is said to have being simply; but by any ~further
  82   1, 5   |          actuality it is said to have being relatively. Thus to be white ~
  83   1, 5   |               white ~implies relative being, for to be white does not
  84   1, 5   |              out of ~simply potential being; because only a thing that

  92   1, 5   |          goodness is prior in idea to being. For names are ~arranged

  95   1, 5   |       goodness is more extensive than being, because, as Dionysius notes (

 101   1, 5   |              1~I answer that, In idea being is prior to goodness. For
 102   1, 5   |         conceived by the intellect is being; because everything is knowable ~
 103   1, 5   |               is in actuality. Hence, being is the proper object of ~
 104   1, 5   |            audible. Therefore in idea being is prior to goodness.~Aquin.:
 105   1, 5   |               as a cause, is prior to being, as is ~the end to the form.
 106   1, 5   |          causality, goodness precedes being. Again, according to the
 107   1, 5   |        extensively participated than ~being; for primary matter participates
 108   1, 5   |               does not participate in being, since it is ~presumed to
 109   1, 5   |             but merely potential. Now being implies the habitude of
 110   1, 5   |              deprives a thing of some being. ~Therefore being is desirable
 111   1, 5   |             of some being. ~Therefore being is desirable of itself;
 112   1, 5   |             as one seeks some mode of being of which one cannot bear
 113   1, 5   |              one of them some sort of being is ~desired. And thus nothing
 114   1, 5   |         nothing can be desired except being; and consequently ~nothing
 115   1, 5   |                nothing is good except being.~Aquin.: SMT FP Q[5] A[3]
 116   1, 5   |               Para. 1/1~Whether every being is good?~Aquin.: SMT FP
 117   1, 5   |               It seems that not every being is good. For goodness is
 118   1, 5   |              something ~superadded to being, as is clear from A[1].
 119   1, 5   |             But whatever is added to ~being limits it; as substance,
 120   1, 5   |            Therefore goodness ~limits being. Therefore not every being

 127   1, 5   |              1/1~I answer that, Every being, as being, is good. For

 129   1, 5   |               being, is good. For all being, as being, ~has actuality

 179   1, 6   |                but through their ~own being; therefore all things are
 180   1, 6   |               down separate ideas of "being" and of "one," and these ~
 181   1, 6   |             these ~he called absolute being and absolute oneness; and

 185   1, 6   |       something ~which is essentially being and essentially good, which
