Plotinos: Complete Works, v. 3 In Chronological Order,...

RELATION IS AN APPENDAGE EXISTING ONLY AMONG DEFINITE OBJECTS.

Project Gutenberg EPUB3 edition Plotinus and Guthrie, Kenneth Sylvan
Open passage
16. As to relation, which, so to speak, is only an offshoot or appendage,317 it could certainly not be posited amidst the primary genera. Relation can exist only between one thing and another; it is nothing which exists by itself; every relation presupposes something foreign.
