    “It would be easy ... to regard the whole of world 3 as timeless, as Plato suggested of his world of Forms or Ideas.... I propose a different view—one which, I have found, is surprisingly fruitful. I regard world 3 as being essentially the product of the human mind.... More precisely, I regard the world 3 of problems, theories, and critical arguments as one of the results of the evolution of human language, and as acting back on this evolution.”
    —Karl Popper (1902–1994)

    “One must know that war is common, justice is strife, and everything happens according to strife and necessity.”
    —Heraclitus (c. 535–475 B.C.)
