What Men Fear Is Not That Death

When We Say That Pleasure Is The End, We Do Not Mean The Pleasure Of The Profligate Or That Which Depends On Physical Enjoyment--as Some Think Who Do Not Understand Our Teachings, Disagree With Them, Or Give Them An Evil Interpretation--but By Pleasure We Mean The State Wherein The Body Is Free From Pain And The Mind From Anxiety.

I Spit Upon Luxurious Pleasures, Not For Their Own Sake, But Because Of The Inconveniences That Follow Them.

Necessity Is An Evil; But There Is No Necessity For Continuing To Live Subject To Necessity.

Natural Wealth Is Limited And Easily Obtained; The Wealth Defined By Vain Fancies Is Always Beyond Reach.

He Who Doesn't Find A Little Enough Will Find Nothing Enough.
