Fragment 45

ψυχῆς πείρατα ἰὼν οὐκ ἂν ἐξεύροιο πᾶσαν ἐπιπορευόμενος ὁδόν· οὕτω βαθὺν λόγον ἔχει

Traveling on every path, you will not find the boundaries of soul by going — so deep is its measure.

Presumably, the word λόγος ('measure') here is not being used in Heraclitus' technical sense as the divine principle (read more in the article on λόγος).
