(59) You must couple together things whole and things not whole, what is drawn together and what is drawn asunder, the harmonious and the discordant. The one is made up of all things, and all things issue from the one.

(92) Though wisdom is common, yet the many live as if they had a wisdom of their own.

(104) It is not good for men to get all they wish to get. It is disease that makes health pleasant and good; hunger, plenty and weariness, rest.

(111) For what thought or wisdom have they? They follow the poets and take the crowed as their teacher, knowing not that there are many bad and few good. For even the best of them choose one thing above all others, immortal glory among mortals, while most of them fill their bellies like beasts.

--Heraclitus--
