Ron comments:
I have been pursuing this subject
For the past couple of months,
The history of defining Dynamic
Quality.
It's seems to pre-date Plato.
Parmenides, Pythagoras
And earlier. What struck me is
That the definitions hint at the
Fact that it can not be defined.
Every concept fails, even the most
Basic, like time and movement.
What is really interesting is how
The definition, which essentially states it's indefinability becomes
A reified concept in and of itself!

All of western culture is influenced
By the literal interpretation of this definition. 
It became the conceptualization 
Of God and the afterlife. When
It originally pointed to the mind
And it's inability to grasp the 
Un graspable. The theory of forms
Or the doctrine of ideas is the most
Famously misunderstood concept
In the history of humanity.
