matter

   Book,  Paragraph
1 I, 1 | only, if at all, in their matter and in that to which they 2 I, 2 | in its total mass, is a matter for subsequent inquiry. 3 I, 3 | which is resolved into its matter. But there is nothing out 4 I, 5 | discuss, opening the whole matter from the beginning.~Every 5 I, 6 | cannot be equal. It does not matter whether the weights are 6 I, 9 | shape in combination with matter. For instance the form of 7 I, 9 | form, the other form in matter, i.e. a particular thing. 8 I, 9 | subsists, as we know, in matter. But if it is a particular, 9 I, 9 | form in combination with matter; and any shape or form has, 10 I, 9 | which the essence is in matter it is a fact of observation 11 I, 9 | the shape apart from the matter must be different from that 12 I, 9 | that of the shape in the matter, and we may allow this to 13 I, 9 | contains the entirety of matter, as in fact it does. But 14 I, 9 | flesh, and flesh to be the matter of aquilinity. Suppose further, 15 I, 9 | flesh and bones to be the matter of man, and suppose a man 16 I, 9 | resides in a substratum of matter can never come into being 17 I, 9 | being in the absence of all matter. Now the universe is certainly 18 I, 9 | part but of the whole of matter, then though the being of " 19 I, 9 | being made, because all the matter is already included in this. 20 I, 9 | includes all its appropriate matter, which is, as we saw, natural 21 I, 9 | selfsufficient of lives. As a matter of fact, this word "duration" 22 I, 10| indestructible, and it does not matter whether the change of condition 23 I, 10| clearness when we examine the matter universally.~ 24 I, 12| and the same capacity, the matter of the thing being the cause 25 II, 2 | follow their statement of the matter or find a better way. At 26 II, 3 | must be present, since the matter of contraries is the same. 27 II, 3 | bodies to one another. This matter also shall be cleared up 28 II, 4 | can even approach. For the matter of which these are composed 29 II, 4 | step away from earth the matter manifestly becomes finer 30 II, 5 | concerns the eternal can be a matter of chance or spontaneity, 31 II, 8 | and in every case is no matter of chance.~(3) The same 32 II, 9 | We may say, then, in this matter that if the heavenly bodies 33 II, 13| ing that the latter is the matter and the former the essence 34 II, 13| direct our inquiry not by the matter itself, but by the views 35 II, 13| have already decided this matter to the best of our ability, 36 III, 1 | moving stars within it, the matter of which these are composed 37 III, 1 | need not be a line. This matter has been already considered 38 III, 1 | rare in containing more matter in the same cubic area. 39 III, 5 | every body. For it is a matter of observation that a natural 40 III, 6 | cannot be eternal. It is a matter of observation that fire, 41 III, 7 | do not expect a mass of matter to be made heavier by compression. 42 III, 7 | in general, every subject matter principles homogeneous with 43 IV, 1 | state our own view of the matter.~Language recognizes (a) 44 IV, 2 | attribute to each the same matter, or even if they recognize 45 IV, 2 | recognize more than one matter, so long as that means only 46 IV, 2 | contraries. If there is a single matter, as with those who compose 47 IV, 2 | light: and if there is one matter and its contrary-the void, 48 IV, 2 | view that there is but one matter, that there is nothing absolutely 49 IV, 3 | within it is that of form to matter.) Thus to ask why fire moves 50 IV, 3 | movements is that their matter is nearest to being. This 51 IV, 4 | form and the contained to matter: and this distinction is 52 IV, 4 | that which corresponds to matter. In the same way, among 53 IV, 4 | determinate, the below to matter. The same holds, consequently, 54 IV, 4 | consequently, also of the matter itself of that which is 55 IV, 4 | the one character, it is matter for the heavy, and as potentially 56 IV, 4 | the light. It is the same matter, but its being is different, 57 IV, 5 | which has the one kind of matter is light and always moves 58 IV, 5 | thing which has the opposite matter is heavy and always moves 59 IV, 5 | Bodies composed of kinds of matter different from these but 60 IV, 5 | of others. The kinds of matter, then, must be as numerous 61 IV, 5 | four there must be a common matter of all-particularly if they 62 IV, 5 | since it is similar in matter to it.~It is plain that 63 IV, 5 | many distinct species of matter as there are bodies. For 64 IV, 5 | first, there is a single matter of all things, as, for instance, 65 IV, 5 | body: but the contrary is a matter of observation, and it has 66 IV, 5 | and universal: or, if the matter in question is the void 67 IV, 5 | superiority of quantity of matter. But if, secondly, the kinds 68 IV, 5 | secondly, the kinds of matter are two, it will be difficult 69 IV, 5 | if the two bodies are one matter, or two matters both present
