Heraclitus:
(Fragment 53, Hippolytus Ref. IX, 9, 4)
"War is the father of all and king of all, and some he shows as gods,
others as men; some he makes slaves, others free."

Macrobius S. Scip. 14, 19 (DK 22A15)
"Heraclitus said that the soul is a spark of the essential substance
of the stars."

Fragment 93, Plutarch de Pyth. or. 21, 404E
Heraclitus: " The lord whose oracle is in Delphi neither speaks out
nor conceals, but gives a sign."
