thing

    Book,  Paragraph
1 I, 1 | present grounds, appear. One thing, however, is clear. We cannot 2 I, 2 | then, that there is such a thing as simple movement, and 3 I, 2 | contrary of the natural and a thing can have no more than one 4 I, 2 | circular motion. But a single thing has a single contrary; and 5 I, 2 | the circle is a perfect thing. This cannot be said of 6 I, 3 | the centre. The heaviest thing will be that which sinks 7 I, 3 | both relatively to the same thing: for things are heavy and 8 I, 5 | can. There is then no such thing as an infinite sphere or 9 I, 6 | point. If there is no such thing as infinite weight, then 10 I, 6 | weight, if there is such a thing, being, on the one hand, 11 I, 7 | if it is impossible for a thing to have come to be white, 12 I, 7 | is thus impossible for a thing to be moving to a place 13 I, 7 | is shown that no finite thing possesses infinite power, 14 I, 7 | infinite power, and no infinite thing finite power.) If then that 15 I, 7 | movement is impossible. A thing must move either naturally 16 I, 7 | Again, a place in which a thing rests or to which it moves 17 I, 8 | naturally and by constraint. A thing moves naturally to a place 18 I, 8 | constraint. On the other hand, a thing moves by constraint to a 19 I, 8 | make whether we say that a thing is this distance away or 20 I, 9 | form of the sphere is one thing and the gold or bronze sphere 21 I, 9 | the circle again is one thing, the bronze or wooden circle 22 I, 9 | example beside the particular thing. This may, of course, sometimes 23 I, 9 | matter, i.e. a particular thing. Now since the universe 24 I, 9 | could there arise, any other thing that was aquiline. Similarly, 25 I, 9 | general rule is this: a thing whose essence resides in 26 I, 9 | particular and a material thing: if however, it is composed 27 I, 10| be destroyed. Further, a thing whose present state had 28 I, 10| unordered; and the same thing cannot be at the same time 29 I, 11| does not exist; such a thing is ungenerated in the sense 30 I, 11| generation such that the thing now is which then was not. 31 I, 11| is untrue to say that the thing can ever come into being, 32 I, 11| destruction such that the thing which now is later ceases 33 I, 11| it is impossible that the thing should be destroyed, i.e. 34 I, 11| the limit or maximum. A thing, then, which is within it. 35 I, 11| is of the maximum, and a thing said, with reference to 36 I, 12| the sequel. If there are thing! capable both of being and 37 I, 12| every category, whether the thing is, for example, "man", 38 I, 12| possible for one and the same thing to exist for infinite time 39 I, 12| absolutely. Now it is one thing to be absolutely false, 40 I, 12| absolutely false, and another thing to be absolutely impossible. 41 I, 12| Thus it is not the same thing to make a false and to make 42 I, 12| the other also. But if a thing has for infinite time more 43 I, 12| must coincide. Thus if a thing which exists for infinite 44 I, 12| impossible that one and the same thing should be capable of always 45 I, 12| Thus it is impossible for a thing always to exist and yet 46 I, 12| predicable of one and the same thing, and thus that, intermediate 47 I, 12| therefore sometimes is not. One thing, then, will have the power 48 I, 12| being present in any one thing together, while either A 49 I, 12| of time during which the thing is and another during which 50 I, 12| never predicated of the same thing but one or other of everything, 51 I, 12| always existing, was the thing destroyed, why, after an 52 I, 12| generated or destructible thing existed for an infinite 53 I, 12| every moment, so that the thing will have for an infinite 54 I, 12| all time, even while the thing was as yet ungenerated and 55 I, 12| impossible it is either for a thing which is generated to be 56 I, 12| indestructible, or for a thing which is ungenerated and 57 I, 12| capacity, the matter of the thing being the cause equally 58 I, 12| cannot truly be said of a thing now that it exists last 59 II, 1 | some immortal and divine thing which possesses movement, 60 II, 1 | other movement. A limit is a thing which contains; and this 61 II, 2 | to mean that part, in a thing capable of movement, from 62 II, 2 | themselves. For in no inanimate thing do we observe a part from 63 II, 4 | previously defined, we mean a thing outside which no part of 64 II, 4 | finish which no manufactured thing nor anything else within 65 II, 7 | presumption being that a thing is composed of the same 66 II, 12| their ultimate good. One thing then has and enjoys the 67 II, 12| the end, there will be one thing that always possesses health, 68 II, 13| befits the most precious thing: but fire, they say, is 69 II, 13| the same with that of the thing or the natural centre. But 70 II, 13| same effect on the same thing.~Further, against Empedocles 71 II, 13| in the place to which a thing naturally moves, it will 72 II, 13| motion,-why, I mean, one thing, if nothing stops it, moves 73 II, 13| it, moves up, and another thing to the centre. Again, their 74 II, 13| indeed, to be the case that a thing to which movement this way 75 II, 14| fixed stars. Yet no such thing is observed. The same stars 76 II, 14| constraint. For a single thing has a single movement, and 77 II, 14| single movement, and a simple thing a simple: contrary movements 78 II, 14| cannot belong to the same thing, and movement away from 79 II, 14| of this motion is that a thing which possesses weight is 80 III, 1 | substance is either a body or a thing which cannot come into existence 81 III, 1 | solidity, except one single thing which persists as the basis 82 III, 1 | divisible in an indivisible thing, but the attributes of bodies 83 III, 1 | impossible, if two parts of a thing have no weight, that the 84 III, 1 | weight. For while a heavy thing may always be heavier than 85 III, 1 | than something and a light thing lighter than something, 86 III, 1 | lighter than something, a thing which is heavier or lighter 87 III, 1 | or light, just as a large thing is larger than others, but 88 III, 1 | larger is not always large. A thing which, judged absolutely, 89 III, 1 | which is heavy. A heavy thing therefore is always divisible. 90 III, 1 | consequence is easy to draw. For a thing is soft if its surface can 91 III, 1 | superior in weight to it, a thing which has weight. But the 92 III, 2 | always one. For naturally a thing moves in one way, while 93 III, 2 | not happen. So the moving thing must stop somewhere, and 94 III, 2 | they must move, and a moved thing which has no natural impetus 95 III, 2 | greater since the heavy thing must move further. Let the 96 III, 2 | source of movement within the thing itself, while a force is 97 III, 3 | and aither are the same thing.) But since every natural 98 III, 5 | greatness and smallness, since a thing with small parts is fine 99 III, 5 | small parts is fine and a thing with large parts coarse. 100 III, 5 | out widely is fine, and a thing composed of small parts 101 III, 6 | all. A place in which a thing is at rest is a place in 102 III, 7 | one of excretion. The same thing happens again when the residue 103 III, 7 | this of every perceptible thing. For any one who gives each 104 IV, 3 | form, and the place of a thing, and in each it is observable 105 IV, 3 | its object fortuitous: the thing altered is different from 106 IV, 3 | altered is different from the thing increased, and precisely 107 IV, 3 | But since the place of a thing is the boundary of that 108 IV, 3 | in the other cases. One thing changes in quality, another 109 IV, 3 | and so in place, a light thing goes upward, a heavy thing 110 IV, 3 | thing goes upward, a heavy thing downward. The only difference 111 IV, 3 | may be. And since the same thing which is healable is also 112 IV, 3 | and in the case of the thing healed, when nothing stays 113 IV, 3 | or off which the moving thing rebounded, as was explained 114 IV, 5 | 5~A thing then which has the one kind 115 IV, 5 | always moves upward, while a thing which has the opposite matter 116 IV, 5 | little water. But such a thing has never been observed 117 IV, 6 | instance-sink down; and sometimes a thing floats because it is small, 118 IV, 6 | force applied by the heavy thing towards disruption and division 119 IV, 6 | if the force of the heavy thing is the weaker, will it ride
