Preoccupied with the appearance/reality duality, Parmenides states that reality is one, change is impossible, and existence is timeless, uniform, and immutable. Non-existence cannot be, while existence equates the intelligible, which is infinite and indivisible. Variety in nature is false and deceitful. Concepts such as birth, development, change, motion, color, etc. lack referents; they cannot even exist as ideas since they are logically unthinkable.
