More quotes by Epicurus
He who has peace of mind disturbs neither himself nor another.
Epicurus
Earthquakes may be brought about because wind is caught up in the earth, so the earth is dislocated in small masses and is continually shaken, and that causes it to sway.
Epicurus
He who doesn't find a little enough will find nothing enough.
Epicurus
The term incorporeal is properly applied only to the void, which cannot act or be acted on. Since the soul can act and be acted upon, it is corporeal.
Epicurus
I never desired to please the rabble. What pleased them, I did not learn and what I knew was far removed from their understanding.
Epicurus
My garden does not whet the appetite it satisfies it. It does not provoke thirst through heedless indulgence, but slakes it by proffering its natural remedy. Amid such pleasures as these have I grown old.
Epicurus
What men fear is not that death is annihilation but that it is not.
Epicurus
The fool, with all his other faults, has this also, he is always getting ready to live.
Epicurus
Death does not concern us, because as long as we exist, death is not here. And when it does come, we no longer exist.
Epicurus
The knowledge of sin is the beginning of salvation.
Epicurus
There is nothing terrible in life for the man who realizes there is nothing terrible in death.
Epicurus
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
Death is nothing to us: for that which is dissolved is without sensation and that which lacks sensation is nothing to us.
Epicurus
Luxurious food and drinks, in no way protect you from harm. Wealth beyond what is natural, is no more use than an overflowing container. Real value is not generated by theaters, and baths, perfumes or ointments, but by philosophy.
Epicurus
The wise man who has become accustomed to necessities knows better how to share with others than how to take from them, so great a treasure of self-sufficiency has he found.
Epicurus
Death, the most dreaded of evils, is therefore of no concern to us for while we exist death is not present, and when death is present we no longer exist.
Epicurus
The fool’s life is empty of gratitude and full of fears its course lies wholly toward the future.
Epicurus
To be rich is not the end, but only a change, of worries.
Epicurus
Is he neither able nor willing? Then why call him God?
Epicurus
We have been born once and there can be no second birth. Fir all eternity we shall no longer be. But you, although you are not master of tomorrow, are postponing your happiness.
