distinctions of intellect. To point out the attributes of a thing is to limit that thing by that attribute. To interpret an object means to limit it by that degree of interpretation. Limit or pariccheda means 'the exclusion of other attributes', as to describe a white thing means the non-existence of black, yellow, or red colours in it. Substance is limitless and, therefore, it is without attribute and is indescribable.
