Even sleepers are workers and collaborators on what goes on in the universe.

Everything flows and nothing abides; everything gives way and nothing stays fixed... Cool things become warm, the warm grows cool; the moist dries, the parched becomes moist... It is in changing that things find repose.

Realize that war is common and justice is strife, and that all things come into being and pass away through strife.

Life has the name of life, but in reality it is death.

Everything changes but change itself. Everything flows and nothing remains the same... You cannot step twice into the same river, for other waters and yet others go flowing ever on.

It is harder to fight pleasure than to fight emotion.

From out of all the many particulars comes oneness, and out of oneness come all the many particulars.
