He who fears death either fears the loss of sensation or a different kind of sensation. But if thou shalt have no sensation, neither wilt thou feel any harm; and if thou shalt acquire another kind of sensation, thou wilt be a different kind of living being and thou wilt not cease to live.
Marcus AureliusPeople who labor all their lives but have no purpose to direct every thought and impulse toward are wasting their time-even when hard at work.
Marcus Aurelius
