Of the irrational part of the soul again
one division appears to be common to all living things, and of a vegetative nature: I
refer to the part that causes nutrition and growth; for we must assume that a vital
faculty of this nature exists in all things that assimilate nourishment, including
embryos—the same faculty being present also in the fully-developed organism
（this is more reasonable than to assume a different nutritive faculty in the
latter）.
Aristotle in 23 Volumes, Vol. 19, translated by H. Rackham. Cambridge, MA, Harvard University Press; London, William Heinemann Ltd. 1934.
