Things pertaining to the reason can be multiplied to infinity. [...] But desire of the end is consequent on the apprehension of the reason. Therefore it seems that there is also an infinite series of ends...


Objection 2. Further, things pertaining to the reason can be multiplied to infinity: thus mathematical quantities have no limit. For the same reason the species of numbers are infinite, since, given any number, the reason can think of one yet greater. But desire of the end is consequent on the apprehension of the reason. Therefore it seems that there is also an infinite series of ends.
