Gilgamesh urges Enkidu to forget death and seek life, invoking the wisdom that the careful man must be cautious but not paralyzed by fear. He quotes the proverb: "Let him who goes first be on guard for himself and bring his comrade to safety!" and declares that it is they who made a name for days long in the future.
"‘Forget death and seek life’—to live, one must stop fearing death. That's the hero's creed."
