“What opposes unites, and the finest attunement stems from things bearing in opposite directions, and all things come about by strife.”

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

“Freedom is the only thing we must demand in life, for all other good things stem from it”

“It is necessary to understand that war is common, strife is customary, and all things happen because of strife and necessity.”

“People do not know how what is at variance agrees with itself. It is an attunement of opposite tensions, like that of the bow and the lyre.”

“All things are in flux; the flux is subject to a unifying measure or rational principle. This principle (logos, the hidden harmony behind all change) bound opposites together in a unified tension, which is like that of a lyre, where a stable harmonious sound emerges from the tension of the opposing forces that arise from the bow bound together by the string.”
