The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from Parmenides by Plato: Impossible.
Now that which is unmoved must surely be at rest, and that which is at rest
must stand still?
Certainly.
Then the one that is not, stands still, and is also in motion?
That seems to be true.
But if it be in motion it must necessarily undergo alteration, for anything
which is moved, in so far as it is moved, is no longer in the same state,
but in another?
Yes.
Then the one, being moved, is altered?
