Don't fear god, Don't worry about death; What is good is easy to get, and What is terrible is easy to endure
EpicurusHe who says either that the time for philosophy has not yet come or that it has passed is like someone who says that the time for happiness has not yet come or that it has passed.
EpicurusDeath, 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
