Hi Everyone,
I hoping that someone can help me. I'm seeking the name of the person that first said: "The thing desribes itself." I was told that the person was a Roman. I searched google and came up with nothing.
The context of the quote is a discussion of the nature of reality. The Roman was responding to the lengthy greek deconstruction of the concept of "table".
Thank you for any leads that this community can provide.
Sincerely,
Frank Morris
