The " something" which has all the necessary accidents (qualities), which is the " thing" itself, this " something" is what the philosophers call " substance". For example, regarding the bread and wine of the Eucharist, the mind is not left to itself. By the revelation of Christ the mind knows that the " substance" has been changed, in the one case into the " substance" of His Body, in the other case into the " substance" of His Blood. Our senses perceive " accidents" of bread and wine; only the mind knows the " substance" of His Body and Blood. See the related terms Nature and Essence.

We look to the substantive law, for example, to tell us what constitutes a breach of contract, or medical malpractice, or trespass, or murder. Procedural rules, by contrast, tell us how to commence a lawsuit or a prosecution, or what kinds of motions can be made, or how information should be shared between litigants.
Substance is a 1987 double album by New Order, grouping their best-known singles in their 12-inch versions, together with some songs that were previously unavailable. Some of this music could clearly be considered as part of the culture and symbolism of the 1980s. Some of the band's most well-known tracks ("Bizarre Love Triangle", "Blue Monday", "Confusion", "The Perfect Kiss", "Temptation", and the then newly-released "True Faith") appear, and the double-CD and double-cassette versions also include various B-sides and two A-sides, "Procession" and "Murder".
substantia in Latin: that which underlies, or upholds something] according to Descartes- Substance is that which can be conceived alone by itself without needing something else in terms of which it is known, and without depending on something else for its existence; a thing which can exist independently (i.e. a stone, me).
