 3   I,  1 |      practice in this way. Of two things, or men, we say "both",

27  II,  13|        strange, too, to ask about things staying still but not about

31 III,  1 |           and indestructible. Now things that we call natural are
32 III,  1 |       terms of the series-and all things composed of them; for example,
33 III,  1 |         of these and of all other things in which they have power

35 III,  1 |          be in these elements and things composed of them.~This is
36 III,  1 |           of nature. There may be things not subject to generation
37 III,  1 |       other than the substance of things perceived; and when they

42 III,  2 |      continued. For the nature of things is the nature which most

44 III,  2 |          others, it is true, make things collect together somehow
45 III,  3 |    elementary bodies of which all things are composed; but this Anaxagoras
46 III,  3 |     elements are the homoeomerous things, viz. flesh, bone, and the
47 III,  4 |        view it turns out that all things are not composed of homocomerous
48 III,  4 |       always assume as principles things finite either in kind or
49 III,  4 |        nor many into one; and all things are generated by their combination
50 III,  4 |        this view in a sense makes things out to be numbers or composed
51 III,  4 |          perception. But of these things we have already spoken in
52 III,  5 |         proceed to generate other things out of it by use of the
53 III,  5 |   increase of quantity makes many things move the faster downward.
54 III,  7 |         It seems that perceptible things require perceptible principles,
55 III,  7 |   perceptible principles, eternal things eternal principles, corruptible
56 III,  7 |           principles, corruptible things corruptible principles;

62  IV,  1 |          with movement, and these things have in themselves some
63  IV,  1 |           and light. Of two heavy things, such as wood and bronze,

65  IV,  1 |     clearer as follows. There are things whose constant nature it
66  IV,  2 |         spoken of light and heavy things only in the sense in which
67  IV,  2 |         sense in which one of two things both endowed with weight
68  IV,  2 |        while earth and all earthy things move downwards or towards
69  IV,  2 |           say, is the lightest of things just for this reason that
70  IV,  2 |         distinction between heavy things and light. There is also
71  IV,  2 |          a like movement in other things, there was no need to raise
72  IV,  2 |          to explain why these two things are themselves light and
73  IV,  2 |         as with those who compose things of triangles, nothing can

75  IV,  3 |          and the continent of all things that move upward or downward
76  IV,  3 |      light appear more than these things to contain within themselves
77  IV,  3 |         to show how none of these things moves itself. The reason
78  IV,  4 |        sinks to the bottom of all things, from the absolutely light,
79  IV,  4 |       rises to the surface of all things. I use the term "absolutely",
80  IV,  4 |          said before, that earthy things sink to the bottom of all
81  IV,  4 |         sink to the bottom of all things and move towards the centre.
82  IV,  4 |         the surface of all moving things. In fact, however, we have
83  IV,  4 |        sinks to the bottom of all things, and that which sinks moves
84  IV,  4 |         which the motion of heavy things, and away from which that
85  IV,  4 |          from which that of light things is directed, is manifest
86  IV,  4 |   movement of earth and all heavy things makes equal angles on every

88  IV,  5 |        sinks to the bottom of all things except earth, while air
89  IV,  5 |       rises to the surface of all things except fire. But since there
90  IV,  5 |       rises to the surface of all things and one only which sinks
91  IV,  5 |        sinks to the bottom of all things, there must needs be two
92  IV,  5 |        sinks to the bottom of all things, the relatively heavy sinks
93  IV,  5 |         is a single matter of all things, as, for instance, the void

95  IV,  5 |           will move upward or all things will move downward, and

97  IV,  6 |      while smaller and less heavy things, so long as they are round

99  IV,  6 |         Thus the reason why broad things keep their place is because
