Happiness Is Man's Greatest Aim

The Summit Of Pleasure Is The Elimination Of All That Gives Pain.

Vain Is The Word Of A Philosopher Which Does Not Heal Any Suffering Of Man. For Just As There Is No Profit In Medicine If It Does Not Expel The Diseases Of The Body, So There Is No Profit In Philosophy Either, If It Does Not Expel The Suffering Of The Mind.

The Magnitude Of Pleasure Reaches Its Limit In The Removal Of All Pain. When Such Pleasure Is Present, So Long As It Is Uninterrupted, There Is No Pain Either Of Body Or Of Mind Or Of Both Together.

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 Death Causes You No Pain When You're Dead, It Is Foolish To Allow The Fear Of It To Cause You Pain Now.
