Heraclitus of Ephesus was a pre-Socratic Greek philosopher who
lived a lonely life earning him the moniker of the "Weeping
Philosopher." His principal philosophy is embodied in the following
statement "No man ever steps in the same river twice," in other
words man faces an ever-present change in the universe. He believed
in the unity of opposites, stating that "the path up and down are
one and the same." According to Diogenes, Heraclitus worked on "a
continuous treatise On Nature," which "was divided into three
discourses, one on the universe, another on politics, and a third
on theology." Only fragments of this work remain today many of
which are quoted from other authors. Those fragments are presented
here in a translation and with critical commentary by G. T. W.
Patrick.
