not universal, and knowledge is of universals. This is clear from demonstrations and from definitions; for we do not conclude that this triangle has its angles equal to two right angles, unless every triangle has its angles equal to two right angles,Belstaff Gangster Blouson Jackor, nor that this man is an animal, unless every man is an animal.
But if the principles are universal, either the substances composed of them are also universal, or non-substance will be prior to substance; for the universal is not a substance, but the element or principle is universal, and the element or principle is prior to the things of which it is the principle or element.
All these difficulties follow naturally,Barn och Spädbarn, when they make the Ideas out of elements and at the same time claim that apart from the substances which have the same form there are Ideas, a single separate entity. But if, e.g. in the case of the elements of speech, the a’s and the b’s may quite well be many and there need be no a-itself and b-itself besides the many, there may be, so far as this goes, an infinite number of similar syllables. The statement that an knowledge is universal, so that the principles of things must also be universal and not separate substances,NHL Mens Vancouver Canucks Black Rink Warrior Pullover Hoodie, presents indeed, of all the points we have mentioned, the greatest difficulty, but yet the statement is in a sense true, although in a sense it is not. For knowledge, like the verb ‘to know’, means two things, of which one is potential and one actual. The potency,Loui Eriksson Tröjor, being, as matter, universal and indefinite, deals with the universal and indefinite; but the actuality,CG Dame Hybridge Lite Vest, being definite, deals with a definite object, being a ‘this’, it deals with a ‘this’. But per accidens sight sees universal colour, because this individual colour which it sees is colour; and this individual a which the grammarian investigates is an a. For if the principles must be universal,Dame Moncler Gresselle, what is derived from them must also be universal, as in demonstrations; and if this is so,Kvinnor Outerwear, there will be nothing capable of separate existence-i.e. no substance. But evidently in a sense knowledge is universal, and in a sense it is not.
Book XIV Chapter 1
REGARDING this kind of substance, what we have said must be taken as sufficient. All philosophers make the first principles contraries: as in natural things, so also in the case of unchangeable substances. But since there cannot be anything prior to the first principle of all things,Belstaff Centaur Jackor, the principle cannot be the principle and yet be an attribute of something else. To suggest this is like saying that the white is a first principle,Esa Lindell Tröjor, not qua anything else but qua white, but yet that it is predicable of a subject, i.e. that its being white presupposes its being something else; this is absurd, for then that subject will be prior. But all things which are generated from their contraries involve an underlying subject; a subject,Dame Moncler Ilay, then, must be present in the case of contraries,NHL Mens Vancouver Canucks Black Camo Stack Pullover Hoodie, if anywhere. All contraries, then, are always predicable of a subject, and none can exist apart,Wayne Gretzky Tröjor, but just as appearances suggest that there is nothi
