Epicurus

Nothing is enough to the man for whom enough is too little.

Let no one be slow to seek wisdom when he is young nor weary in the search of it when he has grown old. For no age is too early or too late for the health of the soul.

Both old and young alike ought to seek wisdom: the former in order that, as age comes over him, he may be young in good things because of the grace of what has been, and the latter in order that, while he is young, he may at the same time be old, because he has no fear of the things which are to come.

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.

If my wealth goes away, it takes with it nothing but itself.

I cannot escape death, but at least I can escape the fear of it.
