. Evidently then we do not seek it for the sake of Blank Jersey any other advantage; but as the man is free, we say, who exists for his own sake and not for another’s, so we pursue this as the only free science, for it alone exists for its own sake.
Hence also the possession of it might be justly regarded as beyond human power; for in many ways human nature is in bondage, so that according to Simonides ‘God alone can have this privilege’, and it is unfitting that man should not be content to seek the knowledge that is suited to him. If, then, there is something in what the poets say, and jealousy is natural to the divine power, it would probably occur Shay Facey Jersey in this case above all, and all who excelled in this knowledge would be unfortunate. But the divine Bayern Munchen Fodboldtrøjer power cannot be jealous (nay, according to the proverb, ‘bards tell a lie’), nor should any other science be thought more honourable than one of this sort. For the most divine science is also most honourable; and this science alone must be, in two ways, most divine. For the science which it would be most meet for God to have NMD X Yeezy 350 Boost is a divine science, and so is any science that deals with divine objects; and this science alone has both these qualities; for (1) God is thought to be among the causes of all things and to be a first principle, and (2) such a science either God alone can have, or God above all others. All the sciences, indeed, are more necessary than this, but none is better.
Yet the acquisition of it must in a Independence Day Jersey sense end in something which is the opposite of our original inquiries. For all men begin, as we said, by wondering that things are as they are, as they do about self-moving marionettes, or about the solstices or the incommensurability of the diagonal of a square with the side; for it seems wonderful to all who have not yet seen the reason, that there is a thing which cannot be measured even by the smallest unit. But we must end in the contrary and, according to the proverb, the better state, as is the case in these instances too when men learn the cause; for there is nothing which would surprise Kevin Volland Jersey a geometer Cristiano Ronaldo Jersey so much as if the diagonal turned out to be commensurable.
We have stated, then, what is the nature of Irland Fodboldtrøjer the science we are searching for, and what is the mark which our search and our whole investigation must reach.
Book I Chapter 3
Evidently we have to acquire knowledge of the original causes (for we say Celtic Børn Fodboldtrøjer we know each thing only when we think we recognize its first cause), and causes are spoken of Troy Perkins Jersey in four senses. In one of these we mean the substance, i.e. the essence (for the ‘why’ is reducible finally to the definition, and the ultimate ‘why’ is a cause Albania Pelipaita and principle); in another the matter or substratum, in a third the source of the change, and in a fourth the cause opposed Saad Abdul-Salaam Jersey to this, the purpose and the good (for this is the end of all generation and change). We have studied these causes sufficiently in our work on nature, but yet let us call to our aid those who have attacked the investigation of being and philosophized about reality befolinks:
