raries are reducible to being and non-being, and to unity and plurality,Tottenham Hotspur Dziecko, as for instance rest belongs to unity and movement to plurality. And nearly all thinkers agree that being and substance are composed of contraries; at least all name contraries as their first principles-some name odd and even, some hot and cold, some limit and the unlimited, some love and strife. And all the others as well are evidently reducible to unity and plurality (this reduction we must take for granted), and the principles stated by other thinkers fall entirely under these as their genera. It is obvious then from these considerations too that it belongs to one science to examine being qua being. For all things are either contraries or composed of contraries, and unity and plurality are the starting-points of all contraries. And these belong to one science,Dame Pittsburgh Penguins, whether they have or have not one single meaning. Probably the truth is that they have not; yet even if ‘one’ has several meanings,Atletico Madrid Drakt Damer, the other meanings will be related to the primary meaning (and similarly in the case of the contraries), even if being or unity is not a universal and the same in every instance or is not separable from the particular instances (as in fact it probably is not; the unity is in some cases that of common reference, in some cases that of serial succession). And for this reason it does not belong to the geometer to inquire what is contrariety or completeness or unity or being or the same or the other, but only to presuppose these concepts and reason from this starting-point. — Obviously then it is the work of one science to examine being qua being, and the attributes which belong to it qua being,Schalke 04 Koszulka, and the same science will examine not only substances but also their attributes, both those above named and the concepts ‘prior’ and ‘posterior’,Beats Pro, ‘genus’ and ‘species’,Pittsburgh Penguins Barn, ‘whole’ and ‘part’, and the others of this sort.
Book IV Chapter 3
We must state whether it belongs to one or to different sciences to inquire into the truths which are in mathematics called axioms, and into substance. Evidently, the inquiry into these also belongs to one science, and that the science of the philosopher; for these truths hold good for everything that is,Michael Kors Torebki torebki, and not for some special genus apart from others. And all men use them, because they are true of being qua being and each genus has being. But men use them just so far as to satisfy their purposes; that is,The North Face reppu Suomi, as far as the genus to which their demonstrations refer extends. Therefore since these truths clearly hold good for all things qua being (for this is what is common to them), to him who studies being qua being belongs the inquiry into these as well. And for this reason no one who is conducting a special inquiry tries to say anything about their truth or falsity,-neither the geometer nor the arithmetician. Some natural philosophers indeed have done so,Nike Air Force 1, and their procedure was intelligible enough; for they thought that they alone were inquiring about the whole of nature and about being.
