is true; firstly, because even if sensation-at least of the object peculiar to the sense in question-is not false,Gary Roberts Tröjor, still appearance is not the same as sensation.-Again, it is fair to express surprise at our opponents’ raising the question whether magnitudes are as great, and colours are of such a nature, as they appear to people at a distance,Tomas Hertl Tröjor, or as they appear to those close at hand, and whether they are such as they appear to the healthy or to the sick,Ryan Callahan Tröjor, and whether those things are heavy which appear so to the weak or those which appear so to the strong, and those things true which appear to the slee ing or to the waking. For obviously they do not think these to be open questions; no one, at least, if when he is in Libya he has fancied one night that he is in Athens, starts for the concert hall.-And again with regard to the future, as Plato says, surely the opinion of the physician and that of the ignorant man are not equally weighty,CG Menn Skreslet Parka, for instance, on the question whether a man will get well or not.-And again, among sensations themselves the sensation of a foreign object and that of the appropriate object,Scott Laughton Tröjor, or that of a kindred object and that of the object of the sense in question, are not equally authoritative, but in the case of colour sight, not taste, has the authority,Juuse Saros Tröjor, and in the case of flavour taste, not sight; each of which senses never says at the same time of the same object that it simultaneously is ‘so and not so’.-But not even at different times does one sense disagree about the quality, but only about that to which the quality belongs. I mean, for instance, that the same wine might seem, if either it or one’s body changed, at one time sweet and at another time not sweet; but at least the sweet, such as it is when it exists, has never yet changed, but one is always right about it, and that which is to be sweet is of necessity of such and such a nature. Yet all these views destroy this necessity, leaving nothing to be of necessity, as they leave no essence of anything; for the necessary cannot be in this way and also in that,Evgeni Malkin Tröjor, so that if anything is of necessity, it will not be ‘both so and not so’.
And, in general, if only the sensible exists, there would be nothing if animate things were not; for there would be no faculty of sense. Now the view that neither the sensible qualities nor the sensations would exist is doubtless true (for they are affections of the perceiver), but that the substrata which cause the sensation should not exist even apart from sensation is impossible. For sensation is surely not the sensation of itself, but there is something beyond the sensation,Matt Murray Tröjor, which must be prior to the sensation; for that which moves is prior in nature to that which is moved,Belstaff Naima Jackor, and if they are correlative terms,Menn Moncler Eric, this is no less the case.
Book IV Chapter 6
There are,Sven Baertschi Tröjor, both among those who have these convictions and among those who merely profess these views, some who raise a difficulty by asking,Rick Nash Tröjor, who is to be the judge of the healthy man, and in general who is likely to judge rightly on each c
