“But the elements are not separated each into its own region of the universe, because the revolution unites their minute particles, compressing and forcing them together into the centre, at the same time as it separates the larger masses. Hence as they change their shapes, so also do they change the regions which they occupy.”
A collection of quotations and facts from the great Epicurean philosopher. Original text is juxtaposed with the English translation.
