Heraclitus was an ancient greek philosopher born in Ephesus (near Miletus, the “birthplace of philosophy”) in 540 BC. Heraclitus famously wrote in a way that is very hard to read, and for that reason the other philosopher’s called him “The Obscure” and “The Riddler.” He believed there was a fundamental unity of experience which the other philosophers had not recognized. He called this the Word or logos which he believed operated in the world through the constant changing of opposites into one another. He considered fire the most important element, symbolizing this eternal change.
