The same is the case with those accidents that inseparably accompany their subject; for these come into being along with their subject. But accidents which supervene to the subject, have their special idea. For an architect produces through the form of the house all the accidents that originally accompany it;
   whereas those that are superadded to the house when completed, such as painting, or any other such thing, are produced through some other form. Now individual things, according to Plato, have no other idea than that of species; both because particular things are individualized by matter, which, as some say, he held to be uncreated and the concause with the idea; and because the intention of nature regards the species, and produces individuals only that in them the species may be preserved.

Now there is this difference between the appetite and the intellect, or any knowledge whatsoever, that knowledge is according as the thing known is in the knower, whilst appetite is according as the desirer tends towards the thing desired. Thus the term of the appetite, namely good, is in the object desirable, and the term of the intellect,
   namely true, is in the intellect itself. Now as good exists in a thing so far as that thing is related to the appetite---and hence the aspect of goodness passes on from the desirable thing to the appetite, in so far as the appetite is called good if its object is good; so, since the true is in the intellect in so far as it is conformed to the object understood, the aspect of the true must needs pass from the intellect to the object understood, so that also the thing understood is said to be

   intellect. In the same way natural things are said to be true in so far as they express the likeness of the species that are in the divine mind. For a stone is called true, which possesses the nature proper to a stone, according to the preconception in the divine intellect. Thus, then, truth resides primarily in the intellect, and secondarily in things according as they are related to the intellect as their principle. Consequently there are various definitions of truth. Augustine says (De Vera
   Relig. xxxvi), "Truth is that whereby is made manifest that which is;" and Hilary says (De Trin. v) that "Truth makes being clear and evident" and this pertains to truth according as it is in the intellect. As to the truth of things in so far as they are related to the intellect, we have Augustine's definition (De Vera Relig. xxxvi), "Truth is a supreme likeness without any unlikeness to a principle": also Anselm's definition (De Verit. xii), "Truth is rightness, perceptible by the mind alone";
   for that is right which is in accordance with the principle; also Avicenna's definition (Metaph. viii, 6), "The truth of each thing is a property of the essence which is immutably attached to it." The definition that "Truth is the equation of thought and thing" is applicable to it under either aspect.</p>

+quod, sicut bonum nominat id in quod tendit appetitus, ita verum
+nominat id in quod tendit intellectus. Hoc autem distat inter
+appetitum et intellectum, sive quamcumque cognitionem, quia
+cognitio est secundum quod cognitum est in cognoscente, appetitus
+autem est secundum quod appetens inclinatur in ipsam rem appetitam.
+Et sic terminus appetitus, quod est bonum, est in re appetibili,
+sed terminus cognitionis, quod est verum, est in ipso intellectu.
+Sicut autem bonum est in re, inquantum habet ordinem ad appetitum;
+et propter hoc ratio bonitatis derivatur a re appetibili in
+appetitum, secundum quod appetitus dicitur bonus, prout est boni,
+ita, cum verum sit in intellectu secundum quod conformatur rei
+intellectae, necesse est quod ratio veri ab intellectu ad rem
+intellectam derivetur, ut res etiam intellecta vera dicatur,
+secundum quod habet aliquem ordinem ad intellectum. Res autem
+intellecta ad intellectum aliquem potest habere ordinem vel per se,
+vel per accidens. Per se quidem habet ordinem ad intellectum a quo
+dependet secundum suum esse, per accidens autem ad intellectum a
+quo cognoscibilis est. Sicut si dicamus quod domus comparatur ad
+intellectum artificis per se, per accidens autem comparatur ad
+intellectum a quo non dependet. Iudicium autem de re non sumitur
+secundum id quod inest ei per accidens, sed secundum id quod inest
+ei per se. Unde unaquaeque res dicitur vera absolute, secundum
+ordinem ad intellectum a quo dependet. Et inde est quod res
+artificiales dicuntur verae per ordinem ad intellectum nostrum,
+dicitur enim domus vera, quae assequitur similitudinem formae quae
+est in mente artificis; et dicitur oratio vera, inquantum est
+signum intellectus veri. Et similiter res naturales dicuntur esse
+verae, secundum quod assequuntur similitudinem specierum quae sunt
+in mente divina, dicitur enim verus lapis, qui assequitur propriam
+lapidis naturam, secundum praeconceptionem intellectus divini. Sic
+ergo veritas principaliter est in intellectu; secundario vero in
+rebus, secundum quod comparantur ad intellectum ut ad principium.
+Et secundum hoc, veritas diversimode notificatur. Nam Augustinus,
+in libro de vera Relig., dicit quod <i>veritas est, qua ostenditur
+id quod est</i>. Et Hilarius dicit quod <i>verum est declarativum
+aut manifestativum esse</i>. Et hoc pertinet ad veritatem secundum
+quod est in intellectu. Ad veritatem autem rei secundum ordinem ad
+intellectum, pertinet definitio Augustini in libro de vera Relig.,
+<i>veritas est summa similitudo principii, quae sine ulla
+dissimilitudine est</i>. Et quaedam definitio Anselmi, <i>veritas
+est rectitudo sola mente perceptibilis</i>; nam rectum est, quod
+principio concordat. Et quaedam definitio Avicennae, <i>veritas
+uniuscuiusque rei est proprietas sui esse quod stabilitum est
+ei</i>. Quod autem dicitur quod veritas est adaequatio rei et
+intellectus potest ad utrumque pertinere.</p></div></div>

 <p xml:lang="en" id="FP.ii.FP_Q16.FP_Q16_A2-p5" shownumber="no"><b>I answer that,</b> As stated before, truth resides, in its primary aspect, in the intellect. Now since everything is true according as it has the form proper to its nature, the intellect, in so far as it is knowing, must be true, so far as it has the likeness of the thing known, this being its form, as knowing. For this reason truth is defined by the conformity of intellect and thing; and hence to know this conformity is to know truth. But in no way can sense know this. For
   although sight has the likeness of a visible thing, yet it does not know the comparison which exists between the thing seen and that which itself apprehends concerning it. But the intellect can know its own conformity with the intelligible thing; yet it does not apprehend it by knowing of a thing "what a thing is." When, however, it judges that a thing corresponds to the form which it apprehends about that thing, then first it knows and expresses truth. This it does by composing and dividing:
   for in every proposition it either applies to, or removes from the thing signified by the subject, some form signified by the predicate: and this clearly shows that the sense is true of any thing, as is also the intellect, when it knows "what a thing is"; but it does not thereby know or affirm truth. This is in like manner the case with complex or non-complex words. Truth therefore may be in the senses, or in the intellect knowing "what a thing is," as in anything that is true; yet not as the
   thing known in the knower, which is implied by the word "truth"; for the perfection of the intellect is truth as known. Therefore, properly speaking, truth resides in the intellect composing and dividing; and not in the senses; nor in the intellect knowing "what a thing is."</p><p xml:lang="en" id="FP.ii.FP_Q16.FP_Q16_A2-p6" shownumber="no"> And thus the Objections given are solved.</p>

And since every thing is denominated simply by what belongs to it "per se," but is denominated relatively by what belongs to it accidentally; a thing indeed may be called false simply when

   Philosopher says (Metaph. v, 34). So, too, Augustine says (Soliloq. ii, 10): "The true tragedian is a false Hector": even as, on the contrary, anything can be called true, in regard to that which is becoming to it. In another way a thing can be called false, by way of cause---and thus a thing is said to be false that naturally begets a false opinion. And whereas it is innate in us to judge things by external appearances, since our knowledge takes its rise from sense, which principally and
   naturally deals with external accidents, therefore those external accidents, which resemble things other than themselves, are said to be false with respect to those things; thus gall is falsely honey; and tin, false gold. Regarding this, Augustine says (Soliloq. ii, 6): "We call those things false that appear to our apprehension like the true:" and the Philosopher says (Metaph. v, 34): "Things are called false that are naturally apt to appear such as they are not, or what they are not." In this
   way a man is called false as delighting in false opinions or words, and not because he can invent them; for in this way many wise and learned persons might be called false, as stated in Metaph. v, 34.</p>

+quod, cum verum et falsum opponantur; opposita autem sunt circa
+idem; necesse est ut ibi prius quaeratur falsitas, ubi primo
+veritas invenitur, hoc est in intellectu. In rebus autem neque
+veritas neque falsitas est, nisi per ordinem ad intellectum. Et
+quia unumquodque secundum id quod convenit ei per se, simpliciter
+nominatur; secundum autem id quod convenit ei per accidens, non
+nominatur nisi secundum quid; res quidem simpliciter falsa dici
+posset per comparationem ad intellectum a quo dependet, cui
+comparatur per se; in ordine autem ad alium intellectum, cui
+comparatur per accidens, non posset dici falsa nisi secundum quid.
+Dependent autem ab intellectu divino res naturales, sicut ab
+intellectu humano res artificiales. Dicuntur igitur res
+artificiales falsae simpliciter et secundum se, inquantum deficiunt
+a forma artis, unde dicitur aliquis artifex opus falsum facere,
+quando deficit ab operatione artis. Sic autem in rebus
+dependentibus a Deo, falsitas inveniri non potest per comparationem
+ad intellectum divinum, cum quidquid in rebus accidit, ex
+ordinatione divini intellectus procedat, nisi forte in voluntariis
+agentibus tantum, in quorum potestate est subducere se ab
+ordinatione divini intellectus; in quo malum culpae consistit,
+secundum quod ipsa peccata falsitates et mendacia dicuntur in
+Scripturis, secundum illud Psalmi IV, <i>ut quid diligitis
+vanitatem et quaeritis mendacium?</i> Sicut per oppositum operatio
+virtuosa veritas vitae nominatur, inquantum subditur ordini divini
+intellectus; sicut dicitur Ioan. III, <i>qui facit veritatem, venit
+ad lucem</i>. Sed per ordinem ad intellectum nostrum, ad quem
+comparantur res naturales per accidens, possunt dici falsae, non
+simpliciter, sed secundum quid. Et hoc dupliciter. Uno modo,
+secundum rationem significati, ut dicatur illud esse falsum in
+rebus, quod significatur vel repraesentatur oratione vel intellectu
+falso. Secundum quem modum quaelibet res potest dici esse falsa,
+quantum ad id quod ei non inest, sicut si dicamus diametrum esse
+falsum commensurabile, ut dicit philosophus in V Metaphys.; et
+sicut dicit Augustinus, in libro Soliloq., quod <i>tragoedus est
+falsus Hector</i>. Sicut e contrario potest unumquodque dici verum,
+secundum id quod competit ei. Alio modo, per modum causae. Et sic
+dicitur res esse falsa, quae nata est facere de se opinionem
+falsam. Et quia innatum est nobis per ea quae exterius apparent de
+rebus iudicare, eo quod nostra cognitio a sensu ortum habet, qui
+primo et per se est exteriorum accidentium; ideo ea quae in
+exterioribus accidentibus habent similitudinem aliarum rerum,
+dicuntur esse falsa secundum illas res; sicut fel est falsum mel,
+et stannum est falsum argentum. Et secundum hoc dicit Augustinus,
+in libro Soliloq., quod <i>eas res falsas nominamus, quae
+verisimilia apprehendimus</i>. Et philosophus dicit, in V
+Metaphys., quod <i>falsa dicuntur quaecumque apta nata sunt
+apparere aut qualia non sunt, aut quae non sunt</i>. Et per hunc
+modum etiam dicitur homo falsus, inquantum est amativus falsarum
+opinionum vel locutionum. Non autem ex hoc quod potest eas
+confingere, quia sic etiam sapientes et scientes falsi dicerentur,
+ut dicitur in V Metaphys.</p></div></div>

Secondly, of its own nature, though not primarily; as in sight there is the likeness of shape, size, and of other sensible objects common to more than one sense. Thirdly,

Wherefore the definition of one thing is false of another.
   In another way, by composing a definition of parts which are mutually exclusive. For thus the definition is not only false of the thing, but false in itself. A definition such as " a reasonable four-footed animal" would be of this kind, and the intellect false in making it; for such a statement as "some reasonable animals are four-footed" is false in itself.

Hence from external appearances we come to the knowledge of the essence of things. And because we name a thing in accordance with our knowledge of it, as is clear from what has already been said (<a id="FP.ii.FP_Q18.FP_Q18_A2-p6.2" href="#FP.ii.FP_Q13.FP_Q13_A1" shape="rect" xml:link="simple">Q[13], A[1]</a>), so from external properties names are often imposed to signify essences. Hence such names are sometimes taken strictly to denote the essence itself, the signification of which is their principal object; but sometimes, and less strictly, to denote the properties by reason of which they are imposed. And so we see that the word "body" is used to denote a genus of substances from the fact of their possessing three dimensions: and is sometimes taken to denote the
   dimensions themselves; in which sense body is said to be a species of quantity. The same must be said of life. The name is given from a certain external appearance, namely, self-movement, yet not precisely to signify this, but rather a substance to which self-movement and the application of itself to any kind of operation, belong naturally. To live, accordingly, is nothing else than to exist in this or that nature; and life signifies this, though in the abstract, just as the word "running"
   denotes "to run" in the abstract.</p><p xml:lang="en" id="FP.ii.FP_Q18.FP_Q18_A2-p7" shownumber="no"> Hence "living" is not an accidental but an essential predicate.

In proof of which it must be considered that since a thing is said to live in so far as it operates of itself and not as moved by another, the more perfectly this power is found in anything, the more perfect is the life of that thing. In things that move and are moved, a threefold order is found. In the first place, the end moves the agent: and the principal agent is that which acts through its form, and
   sometimes it does so through some instrument that acts by virtue not of its own form, but of the principal agent, and does no more than execute the action. Accordingly there are things that move themselves, not in respect of any form or end naturally inherent in them, but only in respect of the executing of the movement; the form by which they act, and the end of the action being alike determined for them by their nature. Of this kind are plants, which move themselves according to their

   their operation, or movement; for this has been implanted in them by nature; and by natural instinct they are moved to any action through the form apprehended by sense. Hence such animals as move themselves in respect to an end they themselves propose are superior to these. This can only be done by reason and intellect; whose province it is to know the proportion between the end and the means to that end, and duly coordinate them. Hence a more perfect degree of life is that of intelligible
   beings; for their power of self-movement is more perfect. This is shown by the fact that in one and the same man the intellectual faculty moves the sensitive powers; and these by their command move the organs of movement. Thus in the arts we see that the art of using a ship, i.e. the art of navigation, rules the art of ship-designing; and this in its turn rules the art that is only concerned with preparing the material for the ship.</p><p xml:lang="en" id="FP.ii.FP_Q18.FP_Q18_A3-p8" shownumber="no"> But although our intellect moves itself to some things, yet others are supplied by nature, as are first principles, which it cannot doubt; and the last end, which it cannot but will. Hence, although with respect to some things it moves itself, yet with regard to other things it must be moved by another. Wherefore that being whose act of understanding is its very nature, and which, in what it naturally possesses, is not determined by another, must have life in the most perfect
   degree. Such is God; and hence in Him principally is life. From this the Philosopher concludes (Metaph. xii, 51), after showing God to be intelligent, that God has life most perfect and eternal, since His intellect is most perfect and always in act.</p>

+quod vita maxime proprie in Deo est. Ad cuius evidentiam,
+considerandum est quod, cum vivere dicantur aliqua secundum quod
+operantur ex seipsis, et non quasi ab aliis mota; quanto perfectius
+competit hoc alicui, tanto perfectius in eo invenitur vita. In
+moventibus autem et motis tria per ordinem inveniuntur. Nam primo,
+finis movet agentem; agens vero principale est quod per suam formam
+agit; et hoc interdum agit per aliquod instrumentum, quod non agit
+ex virtute suae formae, sed ex virtute principalis agentis; cui
+instrumento competit sola executio actionis. Inveniuntur igitur
+quaedam, quae movent seipsa, non habito respectu ad formam vel
+finem, quae inest eis a natura, sed solum quantum ad executionem
+motus, sed forma per quam agunt, et finis propter quem agunt,
+determinantur eis a natura. Et huiusmodi sunt plantae, quae
+secundum formam inditam eis a natura, movent seipsas secundum
+augmentum et decrementum. Quaedam vero ulterius movent seipsa, non
+solum habito respectu ad executionem motus, sed etiam quantum ad
+formam quae est principium motus, quam per se acquirunt. Et
+huiusmodi sunt animalia, quorum motus principium est forma non a
+natura indita, sed per sensum accepta. Unde quanto perfectiorem
+sensum habent, tanto perfectius movent seipsa. Nam ea quae non
+habent nisi sensum tactus, movent solum seipsa motu dilatationis et
+constrictionis, ut ostrea, parum excedentia motum plantae. Quae
+vero habent virtutem sensitivam perfectam, non solum ad
+cognoscendum coniuncta et tangentia, sed etiam ad cognoscendum
+distantia, movent seipsa in remotum motu processivo. Sed quamvis
+huiusmodi animalia formam quae est principium motus, per sensum
+accipiant, non tamen per seipsa praestituunt sibi finem suae
+operationis, vel sui motus; sed est eis inditus a natura, cuius
+instinctu ad aliquid agendum moventur per formam sensu apprehensam.
+Unde supra talia animalia sunt illa quae movent seipsa, etiam
+habito respectu ad finem, quem sibi praestituunt. Quod quidem non
+fit nisi per rationem et intellectum, cuius est cognoscere
+proportionem finis et eius quod est ad finem, et unum ordinare in
+alterum. Unde perfectior modus vivendi est eorum quae habent
+intellectum, haec enim perfectius movent seipsa. Et huius est
+signum, quod in uno et eodem homine virtus intellectiva movet
+potentias sensitivas; et potentiae sensitivae per suum imperium
+movent organa, quae exequuntur motum. Sicut etiam in artibus,
+videmus quod ars ad quam pertinet usus navis, scilicet ars
+gubernatoria, praecipit ei quae inducit formam navis, et haec
+praecipit illi quae habet executionem tantum, in disponendo
+materiam. Sed quamvis intellectus noster ad aliqua se agat, tamen
+aliqua sunt ei praestituta a natura; sicut sunt prima principia,
+circa quae non potest aliter se habere, et ultimus finis, quem non
+potest non velle. Unde, licet quantum ad aliquid moveat se, tamen
+oportet quod quantum ad aliqua ab alio moveatur. Illud igitur cuius
+sua natura est ipsum eius intelligere, et cui id quod naturaliter
+habet, non determinatur ab alio, hoc est quod obtinet summum gradum
+vitae. Tale autem est Deus. Unde in Deo maxime est vita. Unde
+philosophus, in XII Metaphys., ostenso quod Deus sit intelligens,
+concludit quod habeat vitam perfectissimam et sempiternam, quia
+intellectus eius est perfectissimus, et semper in actu.</p></div></div>

The difference between them is this, that the former action is the perfection not of the agent that moves, but of the thing moved; whereas the latter action is the perfection of the agent. Hence, because movement is an act of the thing in
   movement, the latter action, in so far as it is the act of the operator, is called its movement, by this similitude, that as movement is an act of the thing moved, so an act of this kind is the act of the agent, although movement is an act of the imperfect, that is, of what is in potentiality; while this kind of act is an act of the perfect, that is to say, of what is in act as stated in De Anima iii, 28.

In one way, so far are they are held together and preserved by the divine power; even as we say that things that are in our power are in us.

In this sense we must understand the words of the Apostle when he says, "In Him we live, move, and be"; since our being, living, and moving are themselves caused by God. In

For which reason, in fact, Plato held that the "separate" man was the true man; and that man as he exists in matter, is man only by participation. But since matter enters into the being of natural things, we must say that those things have simply being in the divine mind more
   truly than in themselves, because in that mind they have an uncreated being, but in themselves a created being: whereas this particular being, a man, or horse, for example, has this being more truly in its own nature than in the divine mind, because it belongs to human nature to be material, which, as existing in the divine mind, it is not. Even so a house has nobler being in the architect's mind than in matter; yet a material house is called a house more truly than the one which exists in the
