Life is such a rare blessing, and death is so easy to achieve. Who came up with this idea - to spend a hard-won life waiting for death to come so easily?

Wanting to exhaust all the pleasures of your only life, to experience all the joys of these years, we are only worried that an overfilled stomach does not prevent us from drinking plenty; so that the loss of strength does not prevent one from indulging in carnal pleasures to the fullest. Neither bad fame nor danger to life saddens us. Yang Zhu

Carry out the second stage with the living: notice and examine everything beautiful in the world. Not all the best is in one country: Our universal Father distributed the dowry different lands, and it may turn out that the ugly girl is richer than everyone else. The third stage is all for yourself: the highest bliss in reflection. Gracian y Morales

The art of living long: living with dignity. Two things quickly finish a person off: stupidity and debauchery. Some lost their lives because they did not know how to preserve it, others because they did not want to. Just as virtue is its own reward, so vice is its own punishment.

Man's life is short and powerless; A merciless and dark fate is slowly and inexorably falling on him and his entire family. Not noticing good and evil, recklessly destructive and omnipotent matter follows its inexorable path; a person condemned today to lose what is most dear to him, and tomorrow to go through the gates of darkness himself, can only cherish, until the blow is struck, the lofty thoughts that illuminate his short days; despising the cowardly fear of a slave of fate - to worship a shrine created by his own hands; without fear of the power of chance, to keep the mind from the senseless tyranny that dominates it external life; challenging the inexorable forces that for the time being endure his knowledge and his curses, to hold the world on himself, like a tired but not giving up Atlas.

Yang Zhu

Life is what people strive most to preserve and protect least. Labruyère J.

Don't start life where you have to end. Others will rest at the beginning of the journey, leaving work until the end. No, first - the main thing, and there will be time - secondary. Another would like to win before the battle.
