Epicurus

A strict belief, fate is the worst kind of slavery; on the other hand there is comfort in the thought that God will be moved by our prayers.
Epicurus - from Diogenes Laertius, Lives of Eminent Philosophers
Pleasure is the beginning and the end of living happily.

Justice is a contract of expediency, entered upon to prevent men harming or being harmed.

The greater the difficulty the more glory in surmounting it. Skillful pilots gain their reputation from storms and tempests.

He is a wise man who does not grieve for the things which he has not, but rejoices for those which he has.
Epicurus - 300 B.C.
The man least dependent upon the morrow goes to meet the morrow most cheerfully.
Epicurus - from Diogenes Laertius, Lives of Eminent Philosophers
Death is nothing to us, since when we are, death has not come, and when death has come, we are not.

Do not spoil what you have by desiring what you have not; but remember that what you now have was once among the things only hoped for.

- Epicurus
