Quote
"Running swiftly, balancing on the razor's edge, bald but with a lock of hair on his forehead, he wears no clothes; if you grasp him from the front, you might be able to hold him, but once he has moved on not even Juppiter [Zeus] himself can pull him back: this is a symbol of Tempus (Opportunity) [Kairos], the brief moment in which things are possible." -- Aesop, Fables 536 (from Phaedrus 5. 8) (trans. Gibbs) (Greek fable C6th B.C.)
Definition
KAIROS (Caerus) was the god or personified spirit (daimon) of opportunity and the youngest of the divine sons of Zeus. He was depicted as a youth with a long lock of hair hanging down from his forehead which suggested that Opportunity could only be grasped as he approached.
Introduction
"All men choose to gamble, be it the huntsman in the wood, the soldier on the battlefield or the healer who tends to the plague victims. He must play knowing that eventually he will lose because the game is by definition rigged, but every positive turn of the dice is a victory to be shared with friends and strangers alike." -- Sender the Jew
