Neither one should hesitate about dedicating oneself to philosophy when young, nor should get tired of doing it when one's old, because no one is ever too young or too old to reach one's soul's healthy.

The time when most of you should withdraw into yourself is when you are forced to be in a crowd.

Misfortune seldom intrudes upon the wise man; his greatest and highest interests are directed by reason throughout the course of life.

Death is meaningless to the living because they are living, and meaningless to the dead… because they are dead.

The art of living well and the art of dying well are one.

If death causes you no pain when you're dead, it is foolish to allow the fear of it to cause you pain now.

The honor paid to a wise man is a great good for those who honor him.
