Quotation

Δυάς: Παρὰ τὸ δῶ, τὸ δεσμῶ· ἵν’ ᾖ ὁ ἐκ συνδέσεως πρῶτος ἀριθμὸς, πρὸς ἀντιδιαστολὴν τῆς μονάδος. Ἢ παρὰ τὸ συνδεδέσθαι ἄλλῳ ἀριθμῷ, τῷ ἑνί· τὸ γὰρ ἓν ἀπολελυμένον ἐστὶ, παρὰ τὴν ἕσιν καὶ τὴν ἄφεσιν. Ἢ παρὰ τὸ διεῖναι· μόνη γὰρ πρώτη ἡ δυὰς διΐσταται ἀπὸ τῆς μονάδος· ὅθεν οἱ Πυθαγόρειοι τόλμαν αὐτὴν εἶπον. Ἢ παρὰ τὸ δύο, δυάς

Quotation

ὅτι δυὰς λέγεται παρὰ τὸ διιέναι καὶ διαπορεύεσθαι· πρώτη γὰρ ἡ δυὰς διεχώρισεν αὑτὴν ἐκ τῆς μονάδος, ὅθεν καὶ τόλμα καλεῖται· τῆς γὰρ μονάδος ἕνωσιν δηλούσης, ἡ δυὰς ὑπεισελθοῦσα διαχωρισμὸν δηλοῖ.
