Remark 4.2.11. Suppose that \mathcal{A} is a category. A functor F from \mathcal{A} to \textit{Sets} is a mathematical object (i.e., it is a set not a class or a formula of set theory, see Sets, Section 3.2) even though the category of sets is “big”. Namely, the range of F on objects will be a set F(\mathop{\mathrm{Ob}}\nolimits (\mathcal{A})) and then we may think of F as a functor between \mathcal{A} and the full subcategory of the category of sets whose objects are elements of F(\mathop{\mathrm{Ob}}\nolimits (\mathcal{A})).
