Quote of the Week

Why should I fear death? When I am, death is not; when death is, I am not. Why should I fear that which can only exist in my absence?
Epicurus, 341-ca 270 BC

Very true. Great quote.

I'm not afraid of death but afraid of how I will go. Don't want anything painful or scary.

Thanks!

PS: It's almost like Woody Allen: “I am not afraid of death, I just don't want to be there when it happens.”

I want to die peacefully in my sleep like my grandfather ... not screaming in terror like his passengers.
