| Aristotle held that Matter and Form were the only elements of experience.
| But he had an obscure conception of what he calls 'entelechy', which
| I take to be a groping for the recognition of a third element which
| I find clearly in experience.  Indeed it is by far the most overt
| of the three.  It was this that caused Aristotle to overlook it.
| Attention cannot be concentrated on that which covers the
| entire field;  and this element is so universal that it
| is difficult to find a point of view from which there
| shall be any unquestionable contrast in this respect.
