καὶ διὰ τοῦτο ἔσται μὴ ὄν τε καὶ ὄν· οὐχὶ δέ γε δυνατόν ἐστι τὸ αὐτὸ καὶ ὄν τε καὶ μὴ ὂν ὑπάρχειν; οὐκ ἄρα τὸ μὴ) ὂν τῷ μὴ εἶναι διδάσκεται. τῷ τε μὴ ὄντι οὐδὲν συμβέβηκεν, ᾧ δὲ μηδὲν συμβέβηκεν, οὐδὲ τὸ διδάσκεσθαι συμβήσεται· ἕν γάρ τι ἦν τῶν συμβεβηκότων καὶ τὸ διδάσκεσθαι τοίνυν οὐδὲ ταύτῃ διδακτόν ἐστι τὸ μὴ ὄν.
