“Εἰ γὰρ παντὸς οὖ ἐστιν αἴσθησις ἁφή, καὶ νῦν αἴσθησιν ἔχομεν (πάντα γὰρ τὰ τοῦ ἁπτοῦ ἁπτὸν πάθη τῇ ὁφῇ ἡμῖν σθητά ἐστιν), ἀνάγκη τε εἴπερ ἐκλείπει τις αἴσθησις, καὶ αἰαἰσθητήριόν τι ἡμῖν ἐκλείπειν· καὶ ὅσων μὲν αὐτοὶ ἁπτόμενοι αἰσθανό|μεθα, τῇ ἀφῇ αἰσθητά ἐστιν, ἣν τυγχάνομεν ἔχοντες· ὅσα δὲ διὰ τῶν μεταξύ, καὶ μὴ αὐτῶν ἁπτόμενοι τοῖς πλοῖς, λέγω οἷον ἀέρι τε καὶ ὕδατι” ἕως τοῦ μηδ᾿ ἕτερόν ἐστι σῶμα καὶ πάθος, ὃ μηδενός ἐστι τῶν ἐνταῦθα σωμάτων, οὐδεμία ἂν ἐκλείποι αἴσθησις”.
