Heraclitus · Philosophy
Heraclitus’ paradoxical doctrine that opposites are secretly one - that strife is justice, that the road up and the road down are the same, and that the hidden harmony of the world is woven from tension between opposing forces, like the bow and the lyre.

Explain the unity of opposites in your own words.
