Lucretius
“At this stage you must admit that whatever is seen to be sentient is nevertheless composed of atoms that are insentient. The phenomena open to our observation do not contradict this conclusion or conflict with it. Rather they lead us by the hand and compel us to believe that the animate is born, as I maintain, of the insentient”
Lucretius

Lucretius
“All religions are equally sublime to the ignorant, useful to the politician, and ridiculous to the philosopher.”
Titus Lucretius Carus, On the Nature of Things: De rerum natura

Lucretius
“For fools admire and love those things they see hidden in verses turned all upside down, and take for truth what sweetly strokes the ears and comes with sound of phrases fine imbued.”
Lucretius, The Nature of Things

Lucretius
“Man's greatest wealth is to live on a little with contented mind; for little is never lacking.”
Lucretius

Lucretius
“A man leaves his great house because he's bored
With life at home, and suddenly returns,
Finding himself no happier abroad.
He rushes off to his villa driving like mad,
You'ld think he's going to a house on fire,
And yawns before he's put his foot inside,
Or falls asleep and seeks oblivion,
Or even rushes back to town again.
So each man flies from himself (vain hope, because
It clings to him the more closely against his will)
And hates himself because he is sick in mind
And does not know the cause of his disease.”
Lucretius
