Plotinus, Enneads 4.4 (DIORISIS sentence 3039)

grc plotinus enneads

Καὶ γὰρ εἴ τις λέγοι τὸ κάλλος εἶναι τὸ κινοῦν, διατί τὸν μὲν τοῦτο, τὸν δὲ ἄλλο ἐκίνησε, μὴ τῆς κατὰ τὸ σχῆμα διαφορᾶς τὴν δύναμιν ἐχούσης Διατί γὰρ τὰς μὲν χρόας φήσομεν δύναμιν ἔχειν καὶ ποιεῖν, τὰ δὲ σχήματα οὐ φήσομεν Ἐπεὶ καὶ ὅλως ἄτοπον εἶναι μέν τι ἐν τοῖς οὖσι, μὴ μέντοι ἔχειν τι ὃ δύναται.
