Marcus Aurelius - The Debbie Downer Of Ancient Roman Writers


“He who fears death either fears to lose all sensation or fears new sensations. In reality, you will either feel nothing at all, and therefore nothing evil, or else, if you can feel any sensations, you will be a new creature, and so will not have ceased to have life.” — Marcus Aurelius

"Hey guy, your buddy with the philosophy major is putting a serious harsh on my buzz."
