Epicurus
Image
Death is nothing to us: for after our bodies have been dissolved by death they are without sensation, and that which lacks sensation is nothing to us. And therefore a right understanding of death makes mortality enjoyable, not because it adds to an infinite span of time, but because it takes away the craving for immortality.
Epicurus
Image
Any man who does not think that what he has is more than ample, is an unhappy man, even if he is the master of the whole world.
Epicurus
Image
Justice is never anything in itself, but in the dealings of men with one another in any place whatever and at any time. It is a kind of compact not to harm or be harmed.
Epicurus
Image
Don't fear god, Don't worry about death What is good is easy to get, and What is terrible is easy to endure
Epicurus
