To fear death is nothing other than to think oneself wise when one is not. For it is to think one knows what one does not know. No one knows whether death may not even turn out to be the greatest blessings of human beings. And yet people fear it as if they knew for certain it is the greatest evil.
SocratesI believe that we cannot live better than in seeking to become better, nor more agreeably than having a clear conscience.
Socrates
