Epicurus
“The just man is most free from disturbance.”
“It is impossible to live a pleasant life without living wisely and honorably and justly.”
“Nothing is enough for the man to whom enough is too little.”
“If you wish to make Pythocles wealthy, do not give him more money; rather diminish his desires.”
“The wealth required by nature is limited and easy to procure; the wealth required by vain ideals extends to infinity.”
“Not what we have but what we enjoy, constitutes our abundance.”
“We should look for someone to eat and drink with before looking for something to eat and drink.”
“Death is nothing to us.”
“Let no one delay the study of philosophy when young nor weary of it when old.”
“Of all the things which wisdom provides to make us entirely happy, much the greatest is friendship.”
“He who is not satisfied with a little, is satisfied with nothing.”
“Do not spoil what you have by desiring what you have not; remember that what you now have was once among the things you only hoped for.”
