2. Reason / A. Nature of Reason / 2. Logos

414	Logos is common to all, but most people live as if they have a private understanding [Heraclitus]
	Full Idea: Although the universal law (logos) is common to all, the majority live as if they had understanding peculiar to themselves.
	From: Heraclitus (fragments/reports [c.500 BCE], B002), quoted by Sextus Empiricus - Against the Professors (six books) 7.133.4-
	A reaction: Heraclitus mentions 'logos' in just three fragments - this one, and Idea 15660 and Idea 424.
