About this listen
100 Quotes by Heraclitus of Ephesus is a superb read for those with an interest in philosophy or the human condition.
Insightful, esoteric, and incisive, 21st-century readers will be taken with the relevance of observations made more than 2,500 years ago.
Whether you’re looking for philosophical inspiration or to further your self-development, this is a superb book for dipping in and out of.
While Heraclitus of Ephesus (535BC – 475BC) might be one of the more enigmatic figures in Greek philosophy, his impact is no less profound. From what we know, he was one of the pioneers of the idea of an "ordered universe", but was equally preoccupied with the concept of equality between all people.
However, it was his focus on the balance between the elements that was to be his critical undoing. Heraclitus’ belief that each element has its place in the order of things may have made him unpopular with the cognoscenti, but it also paved the way for those following in his philosophical footsteps, such as Socrates and Plato.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 634
In this monumental work of moral and political philosophy, Plato sought to answer some of the world's most formidable questions: What does it mean to be good? What enables us to distinguish between right and wrong? How should human virtues be translated into a just society? Perhaps the greatest single treatise written on political philosophy, The Republic has strongly influenced Western thought concerning questions of justice, rule, obedience, and the good life.

In 1943, Jean-Paul Sartre published his masterpiece, Being and Nothingness, and laid the foundation of his legacy as one of the greatest twentieth century philosophers. A brilliant and radical account of the human condition, Being and Nothingness explores what gives our lives significance. In a new and more accessible translation, this foundational text argues that we alone create our values and our existence is characterized by freedom and the inescapability of choice.

Seneca's writings are a profound, powerfully moving and inspiring declaration of the dignity of the individual mind.

Nicely compiled but annoying background music
This is a very nice compilation of quotations in one place. There is however, a persistent background music during the narration, which is much akin to elevator music and some may find that annoying and distracting. Would’ve much preferred just the quotations without the background.
Very reasonably priced: one is better off just paying cash rather than burning a credit for this one.
