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.

Death is nothing to us: for that which is dissolved is without sensation; and that which lacks sensation is nothing to us.

Injustice is not evil in itself, but only in the fear and apprehension that one will not escape those who have been set up to punish the offense.

It is not so much our friends' help that helps us, as the confidence of their help.

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.

Being happy is knowing how to be content with little

Death is nothing to us, since when we are, death has not come, and when death has come, we are not.
