“The life given us, by nature is short; but the memory of a well-spent life is eternal.”
“The life of the dead is placed on the memories of the living. The love you gave in life keeps people alive beyond their time. Anyone who was given love will always live on in another's heart.”
“Our span of life is brief, but is long enough for us to live well and honestly.”
“The life of the dead is set in the memory of the living.”
“For while we are enclosed in these confinements of the body, we perform as a kind of duty the heavy task of necessity; for the soul from heaven has been cast down from its dwelling on high and sunk, as it were, into the earth, a place just the opposite to godlike nature and eternity. But I believe that the immortal gods have sown souls in human bodies so there might exist beings to guard the world and after contemplating the order of heaven, might imitate it by their moderation and steadfastness in life.”
“While there's life, there's hope.”
“A happy life consists in tranquility of mind.”
