5. When our thought seeks something for our sense to fasten
to [in this concept of unformed matter], and when it says
to itself, "It is not an intelligible form, such as life
or justice, since it is the material for bodies; and it
is not a former perception, for there is nothing in the
invisible and unformed which can be seen and felt"--while
human thought says such things to itself, it may be attempting
either to know by being ignorant or by knowing how not to
know.
