begin with the movement. I have a hand in the point A. The transport to point B along the interval AB. I say that this movement from A to B is a simple thing.
Of this, each of us has the immediate sense. Undoubtedly, as we bring our hand from A to B, we say that we could stop at an intermediate point, but we would not have more to do then with the same movement. There is no longer a single movement from A to B, there would be, say, two movements with an interval of arrest. Or from within, through the muscular sense, nor from the outside, through our eyes, we will still have the same perception. If we let our movement from A to B as it is, we feel we have to declare and undivided and indivisible.
When I look at my hand that goes from A to B describing the interval AB, I say, "the interval AB can be divided into as many parts as I will, therefore, the movement from A to B can be divided into as many shares as this movement is applied to this range. " Or better yet, "every moment of his journey, the mobile switches to a certain point, then we can distinguish many stages in the movement than you want, then the movement is infinitely divisible. "But let us reflect for a moment. How can the movement applied on the space go? How will the movement coincide with the property? How does the object moving in would a point of its path? It will pass or, in other words, there may be . You would if you would stop, but if you would stop, we will not have to do with the same movement.
