surable by one, and one and number are in a sense opposed,Parajumpers Damen Light Long Bear, not as contrary, but as we have said some relative terms are opposed; for inasmuch as one is measure and the other measurable, they are opposed. This is why not everything that is one is a number; i.e. if the thing is indivisible it is not a number. But though knowledge is similarly spoken of as relative to the knowable,Ravens Drakt, the relation does not work out similarly; for while knowledge might be thought to be the measure, and the knowable the thing measured, the fact that all knowledge is knowable, but not all that is knowable is knowledge, because in a sense knowledge is measured by the knowable.-Plurality is contrary neither to the few (the many being contrary to this as excessive plurality to plurality exceeded), nor to the one in every sense; but in the one sense these are contrary, as has been said,Sporting Kansas City Drakt, because the former is divisible and the latter indivisible,Parajumpers Männer Gobi Jacken Schweiz, while in another sense they are relative as knowledge is to knowable,Canada Goose Freestyle Vesta, if plurality is number and the one is a measure.
Book X Chapter 7
Since contraries admit of an intermediate and in some cases have it,Miami Heat Drakter, intermediates must be composed of the contraries. For (1) all intermediates are in the same genus as the things between which they stand. For we call those things intermediates, into which that which changes must change first; e.g. if we were to pass from the highest string to the lowest by the smallest intervals, we should come sooner to the intermediate notes,Moncler Aliso, and in colours if we were to pass from white to black, we should come sooner to crimson and grey than to black; and similarly in all other cases. But to change from one genus to another genus is not possible except in an incidental way, as from colour to figure. Intermediates, then, must be in the same genus both as one another and as the things they stand between.
But (2) all intermediates stand between opposites of some kind; for only between these can change take place in virtue of their own nature (so that an intermediate is impossible between things which are not opposite; for then there would be change which was not from one opposite towards the other). Of opposites, contradictories admit of no middle term; for this is what contradiction is-an opposition,Sverige Landslagsdrakt, one or other side of which must attach to anything whatever,Belstaff Maple Bunda, i.e. which has no intermediate. Of other opposites, some are relative, others privative,Indiana Pacers Drakter, others contrary. Of relative terms,Belstaff Brooklands Blouson Bunda, those which are not contrary have no intermediate; the reason is that they are not in the same genus. For what intermediate could there be between knowledge and knowable? But between great and small there is one.
(3) If intermediates are in the same genus, as has been shown,Rainbow International Bunda, and stand between contraries, they must be composed of these contraries. For either there will be a genus including the contraries or there will be none. And if (a) there is to be a genus in such a way that it is something prior to the contraries, the differentiae which constituted the contrary species-of-a-genus will be contrar
