racterized by the more and the less, or by the dense and the rare, and by other such qualities; for all these are forms of excess and defect. And anything that is characterized by shape or by smoothness and roughness Dayro Moreno Drakter is characterized by the straight and the curved. And for other things their being will mean their being mixed, and their not Riccardo Montolivo Drakter being will mean the opposite.
It is clear, then, from these facts that, since its substance is the cause of each thing’s being, we must seek in these differentiae what is the cause of the being of each of these things. Now none of these differentiae is substance, even when coupled with matter, yet it is what is analogous to substance in each case; and as in substances that which is predicated of the matter is the actuality itself, in all other definitions also it is what most resembles full actuality. Salomon S-LAB SENSE 2 E.g. if we had to define a threshold, we should say ‘wood or stone in such and such a position’, and Iraq a house we should define as ‘bricks and timbers in such and such a position’,(or a purpose may exist as well in some cases), and if we had to define ice we should say ‘water frozen or solidified in such and such a way’, and harmony is ‘such and such a blending of high and low’; and similarly in all other cases.
Obviously, then, the actuality or the formula is different when the matter Kun Aguero Koszulka is different; for in some cases it is the composition, in others Stefano Sturaro Drakter the mixing, and in others some other of the attributes we have named. And so, of the people who go in for defining, those who define a house as stones, bricks, and timbers are speaking of the potential house, for these are the matter; but those who propose ‘a receptacle to Olympique De Marseille Dzieci 16/17 shelter chattels and living beings’, or something of the sort, speak of the actuality. Those who combine both of these speak Adrien Rabiot Drakter of the third kind of substance, which is composed of matter and form (for the formula that gives the differentiae seems to be an account of the form or actuality, while that which gives the components is rather an account of the matter); and the same is true of the kind of definitions which Archytas used to accept; they are accounts of the combined form and matter. E.g. what is still weather? Absence of motion in a large expanse of air; air is the matter, and absence of motion is the actuality and substance. What Paul Pogba Drakter is a calm? Smoothness of sea; the material substratum is the sea, and Gel Lyte Speed the actuality or shape is smoothness. It is obvious then, from what has been said, what sensible substance is and how it exists-one kind of it as matter, another as Jherson Vergara Drakter form or actuality, while the third kind is that which is composed of these two.

We must not fail to notice that sometimes it is not clear whether a name means the composite substance, or the actuality or form, e.g. whether ‘house’ is a sign for the composite thing, ‘a covering consisting of bricks and stones laid thus and thus’, or for the actuality or form, ‘a covering’, Anaheim Ducks and whether a line is ‘twoness in length’ or ‘twoness’, and whether an links:
