"Why do you hunger for length of days? The point of life is to follow reason and the divine spirit and to accept whatever nature sends you.

Pass on your way, then, with a smiling face, under the smile of him who bids you go"

"When you see runners in town is easy to distinguish beginners from veterans. The ones panting are beginners; the ones with quiet, measured breathing are the veterans. Their hearts, lost in thought, slowly tick away time.
