The real danger in life is not death, but living an evil life.
The only place where success comes before work is in the dictionary. There is only one good, knowledge, and one evil, ignorance.
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.
