Quality also does not seem to be subject to bodily things. Rather, just like quantity, ‘what is’ seems to assume the quality that is apparent, or rather inherent in the thing that ‘is’. The question qualities answer does not seem to be a numeric one, but a kind of unique distinction, or similarity between the subjects being talked about. Assuming the same terms in the prior passage: e.g. 3 red blocks, 3 red sticks, 3 red stars, etc. Quality seems to address the accidental range of inherent shades, and hues, that can be seen by rational men.
