8 I, 9 | one of these, namely the matter, is not-being only in virtue

10 I, 9 | what desires the form is matter, as the female desires the
11 I, 9 | se but per accidens.~The matter comes to be and ceases to
12 I, 9 | be. (For my definition of matter is just this-the primary

16 II, 2 | can be defined in terms of matter only. Here too indeed one
17 II, 2 | to be concerned with the matter. (It was only very slightly
18 II, 2 | to know the form and the matter up to a point (e.g. the
19 II, 2 | of the house and of the matter, namely that it is bricks
20 II, 2 | therefore, which govern the matter and have knowledge are two,
21 II, 2 | with production knows the matter. For the helmsman knows
22 II, 2 | the products of nature the matter is there all along.~Again,
23 II, 2 | there all along.~Again, matter is a relative term: to each
24 II, 2 | there corresponds a special matter. How far then must the physicist
25 II, 2 | do not exist apart from matter. Man is begotten by man
26 II, 4 | at least referred to the matter in some way or other.~Certainly
27 II, 7 | we are looking for the matter. The causes, therefore,
28 II, 7 | proper to his science-the matter, the form, the mover, "that
29 II, 7 | answered by reference to the matter, to the form, and to the
30 II, 8 | nature" means two things, the matter and the form, of which the

36 II, 9 | that are, as it were, its matter.~ ~
37 III, 5 | simply because there is, as a matter of fact, no such sensible
38 III, 6 | games"; and potentially as matter exists, not independently
39 III, 6 | whole. It is in fact the matter of the completeness which
40 III, 6 | unknowable, qua infinite; for the matter has no form. (Hence it is
41 III, 6 | rather than of whole. For the matter is part of the whole, as
42 III, 7 | direction of division. For the matter and the infinite are contained
43 III, 7 | a cause in the sense of matter, and that its essence is
44 IV, 1 | neither in the sense of the matter of existents (for nothing
45 IV, 2 | which the magnitude or the matter of the magnitude is defined:
46 IV, 2 | the magnitude, it is the matter. For this is different from
47 IV, 2 | as by a bounding plane. Matter or the indeterminate is
48 IV, 2 | taken away, nothing but the matter is left.~This is why Plato
49 IV, 2 | in the Timaeus says that matter and space are the same;
50 IV, 2 | one of these two things, matter or form. They demand a very
51 IV, 2 | of them. The form and the matter are not separate from the

53 IV, 2 | Great and the Small or the matter, as he called it in writing
54 IV, 2 | place, if place was the matter or the form? It is impossible
55 IV, 2 | if it is either shape or matter) place will have a place:
56 IV, 3 | generally the form "in" the matter.~(6) As the affairs of Greece
57 IV, 3 | Thus if we look at the matter inductively we do not find
58 IV, 3 | could not be either the matter or the form of the thing
59 IV, 3 | different-for the latter, both the matter and the shape, are parts
60 IV, 4 | be one-the shape, or the matter, or some sort of extension
61 IV, 4 | the whole world.~(3) The matter, too, might seem to be place,
62 IV, 4 | just why we say that the matter exists-so place, because
63 IV, 4 | a is now water. But the matter, as we said before, is neither
64 IV, 4 | three-neither the form nor the matter nor an extension which is
65 IV, 4 | grasp, both because the matter and the shape present themselves
66 IV, 5 | water, for the one is like matter, the other form-water is
67 IV, 5 | other form-water is the matter of air, air as it were the
68 IV, 5 | made more clear. If the matter and the fulfilment are the

76 IV, 9 | different, and that a single matter may serve for colour and
77 IV, 9 | heat and cold.~The same matter also serves for both a large

79 IV, 9 | being smaller, it is the matter which is potentially both

83 IV, 9 | anything new, but because the matter is potentially matter for

85 IV, 9 | the two qualities have one matter.~The dense is heavy, and
86 IV, 9 | and expansion of the same matter.] There are two types in
87 IV, 9 | may be. At that rate the matter of the heavy and the light,
88 IV, 9 | heavy and the light, qua matter of them, would be the void;
