[7] ὁ μὲν γὰρ Δημοκρίτου γεγονὼν ἑταῖρος, ὁ Πρωταγόρας, ἄθεον ἐκτήσατο δόξαν· λέγεται γοῦν τοιᾷδε κεχρῆσθαι εἰσβολῇ ἐν τῷ Περὶ θεῶν συγγράμματι “Περὶ μὲν θεῶν οὐκ οἶδα οὔθ’
ὡς εἰσὶν οὔθ’ ὡς οὐκ εἰσὶν οὔθ’ ὁποῖοί τινες ἰδέαν.” c ὁ δὲ Δημόκριτος ἀρχὰς τῶν ὅλων ἔφη εἶναι τὸ κενὸν καὶ τὸ πλῆρες· τὸ πλῆρες ὂν λέγων καὶ στερεὸν, τὸ δὲ κενὸν μὴ ὄν. διὸ καί φησι μηδὲν μᾶλλον τὸ ὂν τοῦ μὴ ὄντος εἶναι· ὅτι τε ἐξ ἀιδίου τὰ ὄντα ἐν τῷ
κενῷ συνεχῶς καὶ ὀξέως κινεῖται.”
