[16]
Exactly the same thing may take place in the soul as
occurs with the body in a case of paralysis: when the patient wills to move his limbs to
the right they swerve to the left; and similarly in
unrestrained persons their impulses run counter to their principle. But whereas in the
body we see the erratic member, in the case of the soul we do not see it; nevertheless it
cannot be doubted that in the soul also there is an element beside that of principle,
which opposes and runs counter to principle （though in what sense the two are
distinct does not concern us here）.
Aristotle in 23 Volumes, Vol. 19, translated by H. Rackham. Cambridge, MA, Harvard University Press; London, William Heinemann Ltd. 1934.
