Discussion: Fragments
Author: Heraclitus
Description: Fragments is a collection of sayings attributed to Heraclitus, the ancient Greek philosopher known for his focus on change and the nature of reality. His most famous maxim, “You cannot step into the same river twice,” illustrates his belief in the impermanence of all things. Heraclitus argued that conflict and change are essential to the universe's constant transformation, and that unity is achieved through opposites. The Fragments are enigmatic and paradoxical, inviting deep philosophical inquiry into the nature of existence, the cosmos, and the human condition, influencing later thinkers like Plato and Nietzsche.
