In the latter dialogue, Socrates notes some implications for Heracleitus´ theory of flux perception:

1. Qualities have no independent existence in time and space (153d6-e1).
2. Qualities do not exist except in perceptions of them (153e3-154a8).
3. (The dice paradox:) changes in a thing’s qualities are not so much changes in that thing as in perceptions of that thing (154a9-155c6).
