1 I, 2 | different in kind and even contrary.~A similar inquiry is made
2 I, 4 | each infinite: which is contrary to reason.~The statement
3 I, 5 | from, or passes into, its contrary or an intermediate state.
4 I, 5 | natural process is either a contrary or a product of contraries.~
5 I, 6 | for there cannot be one contrary. Nor can they be innumerable,
6 I, 6 | that a substance is not contrary to another substance. How
7 I, 7 | the other hand, and the contrary are incidental in the process.)
8 I, 7 | for it is itself not a contrary. The principles therefore

10 I, 9 | other principles, the one contrary to it, the other such as
11 I, 9 | of their view is that the contrary desires its wtextinction.
12 I, 9 | not defective; nor can the contrary desire it, for contraries
13 II, 1 | there is privation, i.e. a contrary to what comes to be, we
14 II, 3 | same thing is the cause of contrary results. For that which
15 II, 3 | blamed for bringing about the contrary by its absence. Thus we
16 II, 5 | say that chance is a thing contrary to rule is correct. For "
17 II, 6 | when anything comes to be contrary to nature, we do not say
18 III, 3 | some one will say) it is contrary to reason to suppose that
19 III, 4 | for his part, asserts the contrary, namely that no element
20 III, 5 | everything changes from contrary to contrary, e.g. from hot
21 III, 5 | changes from contrary to contrary, e.g. from hot to cold).~
22 III, 5 | element would destroy what is contrary to it. (This indeed is the
23 III, 6 | infinite turns out to be the contrary of what it is said to be.
24 III, 7 | surpassed. In magnitude, on the contrary, every assigned magnitude
25 III, 7 | time.~With magnitudes the contrary holds. What is continuous
26 IV, 8 | for compulsory movement is contrary to nature, and movement
27 IV, 8 | to nature, and movement contrary to nature is posterior to
28 IV, 12| eternally is not, because it is contrary to what eternally is. A
29 IV, 12| eternally is. A thing whose contrary is not eternal can be and
30 V, 1 | the change it serves as contrary to either of two contraries:
31 V, 1 | intermediate as in a sense a contrary relatively to the extremes
32 V, 1 | and of either extreme as a contrary relatively to the intermediate:
33 V, 1 | for a motion has for its contrary either another motion or
34 V, 1 | whereas "perishing" is the contrary of "becoming".~Since, then,
35 V, 1 | such subject is either a contrary or an intermediate (for
36 V, 1 | be allowed to rank as a contrary) and can be affirmatively
37 V, 2 | because Substance has no contrary among things that are. Nor
38 V, 2 | capable of the corresponding contrary motion or the corresponding
39 V, 2 | increase, motion in the contrary direction is decrease. Motion
40 V, 2 | is motion either from a contrary or to a contrary, whether
41 V, 2 | from a contrary or to a contrary, whether in an unqualified
42 V, 2 | be called change to the contrary of that quality, and change
43 V, 2 | regarded as change from the contrary of that quality to the quality
44 V, 2 | contraries will have to be contrary to one another only in a
45 V, 2 | being at rest": for rest is contrary to motion, so that rest
46 V, 3 | process of change it is the contrary that is "last": and a thing
47 V, 3 | contraries) That is locally contrary which is most distant in
48 V, 4 | means an admixture of its contrary. And since every motion
49 V, 5 | determine what motions are contrary to each other, and to determine
50 V, 5 | first to decide whether contrary motions are motions respectively
51 V, 5 | motions respectively from a contrary and to the opposite contrary,
52 V, 5 | contrary and to the opposite contrary, e.g. a motion from health
53 V, 5 | motions respectively from a contrary to the opposite contrary
54 V, 5 | contrary to the opposite contrary and from the latter to the
55 V, 5 | health: for motions must be contrary to one another in one or
56 V, 5 | motions respectively from a contrary and to the opposite contrary,
57 V, 5 | contrary and to the opposite contrary, e.g. a motion from health
58 V, 5 | motion to disease, are not contrary motions: for they are one
59 V, 5 | motion respectively from a contrary and from the opposite contrary
60 V, 5 | contrary and from the opposite contrary contrary motions, for a
61 V, 5 | from the opposite contrary contrary motions, for a motion from
62 V, 5 | motions, for a motion from a contrary is at the same time a motion
63 V, 5 | same time a motion to a contrary or to an intermediate (of
64 V, 5 | later), but changing to a contrary rather than changing from
65 V, 5 | rather than changing from a contrary would seem to be the cause
66 V, 5 | subject), it follows that contrary motions are motions respectively
67 V, 5 | motions respectively from a contrary to the opposite contrary
68 V, 5 | contrary to the opposite contrary and from the latter to the
69 V, 5 | generally recognized as contrary: thus falling ill is regarded
70 V, 5 | falling ill is regarded as contrary to recovering one’s health,
71 V, 5 | these processes having contrary goals, and being taught
72 V, 5 | goals, and being taught as contrary to being led into error
73 V, 5 | downward locomotion, which are contrary lengthwise, locomotion to
74 V, 5 | locomotion to the left, which are contrary breadthwise, and forward
75 V, 5 | hand, a process simply to a contrary, e.g. that denoted by the
76 V, 5 | cases of a thing that has no contrary we have as contraries change
77 V, 5 | thing. Thus coming to be is contrary to ceasing to be, and losing
78 V, 5 | intermediate serves as a contrary for the purposes of the
79 V, 5 | see that two motions are contrary to each other only when
80 V, 5 | when one is a motion from a contrary to the opposite contrary
81 V, 5 | contrary to the opposite contrary and the other is a motion
82 V, 6 | a motion appears to have contrary to it not only another motion
83 V, 6 | so. A motion has for its contrary in the strict sense of the
84 V, 6 | anything may be called its contrary), and motion of one kind
85 V, 6 | one of these (A) to its contrary (B) has for its opposite
86 V, 6 | time these two are also contrary to each other: for it would
87 V, 6 | to suppose that there are contrary motions and not opposite
88 V, 6 | of rest in health is (1) contrary to a state of rest in disease,
89 V, 6 | the motion to which it is contrary is that from health to disease.
90 V, 6 | would be absurd that its contrary motion should be that from
91 V, 6 | whiteness is of course not contrary to rest in health.~Of all
92 V, 6 | change in its being will be contrary to absence of change in
93 V, 6 | it may be asked, that is contrary to absence of change in
94 V, 6 | that every state of rest is contrary to a motion or else coming
95 V, 6 | And it will have for its contrary either nothing or absence
96 V, 6 | decrease: these are not contrary to each other in the sense
97 V, 6 | unnatural, nor is one increase contrary to another in this sense;
98 V, 6 | is unnatural and as such contrary to natural perishing. Are
99 V, 6 | necessity, and are therefore contrary to natural becomings, and
100 V, 6 | we shall have perishings contrary to one another, not to becoming.
101 V, 6 | so one perishing will be contrary to another not in an unqualified
102 V, 6 | rest above are respectively contrary to downward motion and rest
103 V, 6 | locomotions of the two are contrary to each other. And again,
104 V, 6 | natural motion is certainly contrary to its unnatural motion.
105 V, 6 | remaining: remaining above is contrary to motion from above downwards,
106 V, 6 | remaining of a thing is contrary to its natural motion, just
107 V, 6 | in a particular place is contrary to motion from that place.
108 V, 6 | state of rest is itself contrary to the motion from the state
109 V, 6 | the state of rest to its contrary, the contraries rest and
110 V, 6 | a motion finds its true contrary rather in another motion
111 V, 6 | motion of earth that is contrary to the natural upward motion?
112 V, 6 | it is clear that both are contrary to it though not in the
113 V, 6 | natural motion of earth is contrary inasmuch as the motion of
114 V, 6 | fire as being natural is contrary to the downward motion of
115 VI, 10| of ceasing to be: and in contrary changes the particular contraries
116 VII, 1 | impossible results from the contrary supposition: for in a finite
117 VII, 3 | sleep or disease to the contrary state, that he has become
118 VIII, 1| can produce either of two contrary motions: thus fire causes
119 VIII, 1| knowledge may be directed to two contrary ends while remaining one
120 VIII, 3| alteration is a change from one contrary to another. Moreover, we
121 VIII, 4| high up: when it is in the contrary situation, it is being prevented
122 VIII, 5| impossibility though it may be contrary to fact. But the nonexistence
123 VIII, 5| moved in return: on the contrary the necessity that there
124 VIII, 6| the fact that it occupies contrary positions or assumes contrary
125 VIII, 6| contrary positions or assumes contrary forms at different times
126 VIII, 6| different times it will produce contrary motions in each several
127 VIII, 7| itself: thus it is said that contrary is nourishment to contrary:
128 VIII, 7| contrary is nourishment to contrary: but growth is effected
129 VIII, 7| there is this change from contrary to contrary. But the fact
130 VIII, 7| change from contrary to contrary. But the fact that a thing
131 VIII, 7| alteration the various pairs of contrary affections, and for increase
132 VIII, 7| respective contraries are contrary changes. Now a thing that
133 VIII, 7| is no state of rest as a contrary to the process of change:
134 VIII, 7| there may be more than one contrary to the same thing, that
135 VIII, 7| particular motion will be contrary both to rest and to motion
136 VIII, 7| rest and to motion in the contrary direction. We have only
137 VIII, 7| state of rest and of the contrary motion, in the same way
138 VIII, 8| straight line undergoes two contrary locomotions, since, so far
139 VIII, 8| concerned, upward motion is the contrary of downward motion, forward
140 VIII, 8| motion from A to B is the contrary of motion from B to A in
141 VIII, 8| from A towards B is the contrary of the motion from A towards
142 VIII, 8| lateral motion is not the contrary of upward motion. But what
143 VIII, 8| simultaneously undergoing two contrary motions, since the two motions
144 VIII, 8| the same straight line are contrary to each other. With this
145 VIII, 8| the same straight line are contrary motions, and it is impossible
146 VIII, 8| undergo simultaneously two contrary motions, that which is undergoing
147 VIII, 8| will not be undergoing two contrary or opposite motions: for
148 VIII, 8| line (for then they are contrary to one another in respect
149 VIII, 8| traversed repeatedly and two contrary processes of change must
