Of all “things” (of those “things,” namely, which man has about him for use, customarily and even continually – chremata, chresthai), the (respective) man is the measure, of things that are present, that they are thus present as they come to presence, but of those things to which coming to presence is denied, that they do not come to presence. (Sentença de Protágoras, GA6T2, tr. Krell)
