Dialogue

 1 Parme| irreconcilable. Nor does there appear to me to be any absurdity
 2 Parme|     the mention will, perhaps, appear laughable: of hair, mud,
 3 Parme|        believe, only what they appear to be: though I am sometimes
 4 Parme|        to admit this. But they appear to him, as he says in the
 5 Parme|   hypotheses of others, it may appear presumptuous to add another
 6 Parme|     and the least of them will appear large and manifold in comparison
 7 Parme|        them; neither will they appear to be one or many; because
 8 Parme|        others neither are, nor appear to be one or many, like
 9 Parme|  another, are and are not, and appear to be and appear not to
10 Parme|      not, and appear to be and appear not to be, in all manner
11 Parme|      theological controversies appear to hinge, which would not
12 Parme|    like these are such as they appear to us, and I am afraid that
13 Parme|    greatness arise, which will appear to be the source of all
14 Parme|      Once more, then, as would appear, the one will be in number
15 Parme|         The one then, as would appear, becomes and is destroyed
16 Parme|      the first place, as would appear, there is a knowledge of
17 Parme|        not, partakes, as would appear, of greatness and smallness
18 Parme|      Certainly.~Then, as would appear, the one, when it is not,
19 Parme|       not?~Yes.~And there will appear to be a least among them;
20 Parme|        each of the others must appear to be infinite and finite,
21 Parme|       must.~Then will they not appear to be like and unlike?~In
22 Parme|    Just as in a picture things appear to be all one to a person
23 Parme|        you approach them, they appear to be many and different;
24 Parme|      And so must the particles appear to be like and unlike themselves
25 Parme|      They are not.~Nor do they appear either as one or many.~Why
26 Parme|     the others neither are nor appear to be any of these, if one
27 Parme|      way, are and are not, and appear to be and appear not to
28 Parme|      not, and appear to be and appear not to be.~Most true.~THE
