I Spit Upon Luxurious Pleasures, Not For

An Irreligious Man Is Not One Who Denies The Gods Of The Majority, But One Who Applies To The Gods The Opinions Of The Majority. For What Most Men Say About The Gods Are Not Ideas Derived From Sensation, But False Opinions, According To Which The Greatest Evils Come To The Wicked, And The Greatest Blessings Come To The Good From The Gods.

He Who Says Either That The Time For Philosophy Has Not Yet Come Or That It Has Passed Is Like Someone Who Says That The Time For Happiness Has Not Yet Come Or That It Has Passed.

If You Would Enjoy Real Freedom, You Must Be The Slave Of Philosophy.

All Sensations Are True; Pleasure Is Our Natural Goal.

If The Gods Have The Will To Remove Evil And Cannot, Then They Are Not All-powerful. If They Are Neither Able Nor Willing, They Are Neither All-powerful Or Benevolent. If They Are Both Able And Willing To Annihilate Evil, Why Does It Exist?
