Fr. 27 Οἱ περὶ τὸν Ἀριστοτέλη καὶ Θεόφραστον καὶ ὅλως οἱ Περιπατητικοὶ διττῆς οὔσης κατὰ τὸ ἀνωτάτω τῆς τῶν πραγμάτων φύσεως, ἐπεὶ τὰ μὲν καθῶς προεῖπον αἰσθητά ἐστι, τὰ δὲ νοητὰ, διττὸν καὶ αὐτοὶ τὸ κριτήριον ἀπολείπουσιν, αἴσθησιν μὲν τῶν αἰσθητῶν, νόησιν δὲ τῶν νοητῶν, κοινὸν δὲ ἀμφοτέρων, ὡς ἔλεγεν ὁ Θ. τὸ ἐναργές. (Sext. Emp. a. M. 7, 217, p. 414 ed. Fabr. 1718.)
