Sir Epicure






"For Epicurus thus presents his Wise Man who is always happy; his desires are kept within bounds; death he disregards; he has a true conception, untainted by fear, of the Divine nature; he does not hesitate to depart from life if that would better his condition.  Thus equipped he enjoys perpetual pleasure."

--Cicero, De Finibus I, xix, 62
