If there be light, then there is darkness; if cold, heat; if height, depth; if solid, fluid; if hard, soft; if rough, smooth; if calm, tempest; if prosperity, adversity; if life, death.
– Pythagoras of Samos (c. 570 - c. 496 BCE), the Ionian Greek philosopher, mathematician, and founder of the religious movement called 'Pythagoreanism'. As quoted in Bibliotheca Sacra and Theological Review, Vol. IV, No. 8 (1847).
