fficulties. For if it thinks of nothing, what is there here of dignity? It is just like one who sleeps. And if it thinks, but this depends on something else, then (since that which is its substance Benfica Trikot is not the act of thinking, but a potency) it cannot be the best substance; for it is through thinking that its value Portugal Trikot belongs to it. Further, whether its substance is the faculty of thought or the act of thinking, what does it think of? Either of itself or of something else; Griechenland Trikot and Maillot Turquie if of something else, either of the same thing always or of something different. Does it matter, then, or not, whether it thinks of the good or of any chance thing? Are there not some things about which it is incredible that it should think? Evidently, then, it thinks of that which is most divine and precious, and it does not change; for change would be change for the worse, and this would be already a movement. First, then, if ‘thought’ is Chile Landslagsdrakt not the act of thinking but a potency, it would be reasonable to suppose that the continuity of its thinking is wearisome to it. Secondly, there would evidently be something else more precious than thought, viz. that which Japan Damen is thought of. For both thinking and the act of thought will belong even to one who thinks of the worst thing in the world, so that if this ought to be avoided (and it ought, for there are even some Manuel Neuer Trikot things which it is better not to see than to Ecuador Landslagsdrakt see), the act of thinking cannot be the best of things. Therefore it must be of itself that the divine thought thinks (since it is the most excellent of things), and its thinking is a thinking on thinking.
But evidently knowledge and perception and opinion and understanding have always something else as their object, and themselves only Męskie Koszulka by the way. Further, if thinking and being thought of are different, in respect of which does goodness belong to Raheem Sterling Trikot thought? For to he an act of thinking and to he an object of thought are not the same thing. We answer that in some cases the knowledge is the object. In the productive sciences it is the substance or essence of the object, matter omitted, and in the theoretical sciences the definition or the act of thinking is Angel di Maria Trikot the object. Since, then, thought and the object of thought are not different in the case of things that have not matter, the divine thought Ligue 1 and its object will be the same, i.e. the thinking will be one with the object of its thought.
A further question is left-whether the object of the divine thought is composite; for if it were, thought would change in passing from part to part of the whole. We answer that everything which has not matter is indivisible-as human thought, or rather the thought of composite beings, is in a certain period of time (for it does not possess the good at this moment or at that, but its best, being something different from it, is attained only in a whole period of time), so throughout eternity is the thought which has itself for its object.

We must consider also in which of two ways the nature of the universe contains the good, and the highest goolinks:
