The Impossibility of Beings to Be One

If all beings are one in definition, it happens that they will make the assertion of Heraclitus. Posterior philosophers also, as well as the ancient, were disturbed,. lest it should happen to them that the same thing should at the same time be one and many. To those therefore, who employ these arguments it appears to be impossible that beings should be one. Yet Milisos fancies it should be assumed that if everything which is generated has a beginning, that which is not generated has not a beginning.
