"Of everything which we possess there are two uses: both belong to the thing as such, but not in the same manner, for one is the proper and the other the improper or secondary use of it. For example, a shoe is used for wear, and is used for exchange; both are uses of the shoe." -- Aristotle, PoliticsThat sounds like Smith's distinction, for example, between use value and exchange value.
