» Everything flows and nothing abides, everything gives way and nothing stays fixed.
» There is nothing permanent except change.
» You cannot step twice into the same river, for other waters are continually flowing on.
» Man's character is his fate.
» Men who wish to know about the world must learn about it in its particular details.
» God is day and night, winter and summer, war and peace, surfeit and hunger.
» Immortal mortals, mortal immortals, one living the others death and dying the others life.
» Even sleepers are workers and collaborators on what goes on in the universe.
» Greater dooms win greater destinies.
» Nothing endures but change.
