Justice... Is A Kind Of Compact Not

When We Exist, Death Is Not Yet Present, And When Death Is Present, Then We Do Not Exist.

Whatsoever Causes No Annoyance When It Is Present, Causes Only A Groundless Pain In The Expectation. Death, Therefore, The Most Awful Of Evils, Is Nothing To Us, Seeing That, When We Are, Death Is Not Come, And, When Death Is Come, We Are Not. It Is Nothing, Then, Either To The Living Or To The Dead, For With The Living It Is Not And The Dead Exist No Longer.

It Is Impossible To Live A Pleasant Life Without Living Wisely And Honorably And Justly, And It Is Impossible To Live Wisely And Honorably And Justly Without Living Pleasantly. Whenever Any One Of These Is Lacking, When, For Instance, The Man Is Not Able To Live Wisely, Though He Lives Honorably And Justly, It Is Impossible For Him To Live A Pleasant Life.

Virtue Consisteth Of Three Parts,--temperance, Fortitude, And Justice.

Pleasure Is The Beginning And The End Of Living Happily.
