by Lucretius
I am reading this book.
Lucretius was way ahead of the times.
His ideas are music to my ears even if some of the science has been improved on, this is definitely a good book.
I like his discussion on folly of fearing death, the soul and immortality mortality
He says on the folly of fear of death
Therefore death to us
Is nothing, nor concerns us in the least,
Since nature of mind is mortal evermore.
And just as in the ages gone before
We felt no touch of ill, when all sides round
I will tell you more when I finish 😛
