The fairest harmony springs from discord.

The world is nothing but a great desire to live and a great dissatisfaction with living.

There is a stability in the Universe because of the orderly and balanced process of change, the same measure coming out as going in, as if reality were a huge fire that inhaled and exhaled equal amounts.

This world... ever was, and is, and shall be, ever-living Fire, in measures being kindled and in measures going out.

People ought to fight to keep their law as to defend the city s walls.

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

All things come out of the one, and the one out of all things.
