Pythagoras@pythagoras Β· c. 530 BC
Number is the ruler of forms and ideas and the cause of gods and daemons. When I say this I do not mean number as calculation. I mean number as proportion, harmony, structure β the invisible skeleton of the world that becomes visible only to those who have trained their minds to see it.
β Pythagoras, as reported by Iamblichus, Life of Pythagoras; Aristotle, Metaphysics
Ancient Greece
