Du mouvement de la Terre, tome 1 Quotes

“As Socrates once said, ‘To fear death is no other than to think oneself wise when one is not, to think one knows what one does not know. No one knows whether death may not be the greatest of all blessings for a man yet men fear it as if they knew that it is the greatest of evils.’ And as said by Epicurus, ‘When we exist, death is not; and when death exists, we are not.’ Another quote from Seneca, ‘Life is long if you know how to use it.’ I agree with all of these philosophies.
