4 1, 2 | at once in actuality and potentiality in ~the same respect, but
5 1, 3 | in act, and in no way in potentiality. For ~although in any single

15 1, 3 | since in God ~there is no potentiality, as shown above (A[1]),
16 1, 3 | actuality is related to potentiality. For animal is derived from ~
17 1, 3 | sense, as actuality is to ~potentiality. The same argument holds
18 1, 3 | actuality is not added to potentiality, it is impossible that He ~
19 1, 3 | compared to its accidents as ~potentiality to actuality; for a subject

28 1, 7 | substantial form, remains in potentiality to many ~accidental forms,
29 1, 7 | infinite, inasmuch as it is in potentiality to an infinite ~number of
30 1, 7 | primary matter even as a ~potentiality is not absolutely infinite,
31 1, 7 | relatively, because its ~potentiality extends only to natural

33 1, 7 | proper to matter to be in ~potentiality.~Aquin.: SMT FP Q[7] A[4]
34 1, 7 | is not impossible for a potentiality to be made actual. But number

37 1, 9 | reason that, ~absolutely, potentiality is posterior to act. Now
38 1, 9 | changed, is in some way in potentiality. Hence it is evident that ~
39 1, 9 | belong to a thing existing in potentiality, as we now speak of ~change

41 1, 9 | their own existence are as potentiality to act, are not ~consistent

47 1, 13 | implies that He is not a mere potentiality, as is primary matter. ~
48 1, 13 | knowable is considered as a potentiality, and the science as a habit,

51 1, 14 | God has nothing in Him of potentiality, but is pure act, ~His intellect

53 1, 14 | its being in a state of potentiality makes it differ ~from the
54 1, 14 | be perfected thereby, as potentiality is perfected by act. On ~
55 1, 14 | intellect, which is no way in potentiality, is not perfected by the
56 1, 14 | primary matter, ~which is a potentiality, unless it is reduced to
57 1, 14 | natural things; for it is in potentiality as ~regards intelligible
58 1, 14 | known according as it is ~in potentiality, but in so far as it is
59 1, 14 | free from all ~matter and potentiality, that God is cognitive,
60 1, 14 | substance ~would be related, as potentiality is to act, which is altogether ~
61 1, 14 | when ~it is reduced from potentiality to act, acquires first a
62 1, 14 | in so far as they ~are in potentiality; for it is true that they
63 1, 14 | is true that they are in potentiality; and as ~such they are known
64 1, 14 | participates in heat. So, things in potentiality are known by God, ~although
65 1, 14 | intellect which is not in potentiality does ~not know privation.
66 1, 14 | intellect of God is never in ~potentiality, but is always in act, as
67 1, 14 | intellect which is not in potentiality, does not know privation ~
68 1, 14 | matter, which, since it is in potentiality only, is altogether unlike ~
69 1, 14 | Although matter as regards its potentiality recedes from ~likeness to
70 1, 18 | being, i.e. of a thing in potentiality, is called movement; or
71 1, 18 | that is, of what is in potentiality; while this kind of act
72 1, 25 | potential. ~Whence this potentiality is not in God, but only
73 1, 26 | so far as it ~passes from potentiality to act. As, then, God has
74 1, 27 | life does not proceed from potentiality to act, ~procession (if
75 1, 27 | importing the issuing forth from potentiality to act; in ~which sense
76 1, 42 | intellect passing from ~potentiality to act; and this cannot

78 1, 44 | primary matter is only in ~potentiality, formally considered in

80 1, 45 | the same ~being only in potentiality, as in substantial change,
81 1, 45 | the subject which is in potentiality. And so the ~contrary resists
82 1, 45 | inasmuch as it impedes the potentiality from ~the act which the
83 1, 45 | dispositions, whereby the potentiality (of the water) is ~restrained
84 1, 45 | to act; and the more the potentiality is ~restrained, the more
85 1, 45 | required in the agent when no ~potentiality pre-exists. Thus therefore
86 1, 45 | proportion to the distance of the potentiality from the act, it follows ~
87 1, 45 | something from no presupposed ~potentiality is infinite, because there
88 1, 45 | proportion between "no ~potentiality" and the potentiality presupposed
89 1, 45 | no ~potentiality" and the potentiality presupposed by the power
90 1, 45 | to ~distinguish between potentiality and act. For because forms
91 1, 45 | pre-exist in ~matter, "in potentiality," they asserted that they
