Expectations are the death of happiness.

In the pursuit of great, we failed to do good.

Repugnant is a creature who would squander the ability to lift an eye to heaven, conscious of his fleeting time here.

“Live a good life. If there are gods and they are just, then they will not care how devout you have been, but will welcome you based on the virtues you have lived by. If there are gods, but unjust, then you should not want to worship them. If there are no gods, then you will be gone, but will have lived a noble life that will live on in the memories of your loved ones.”

― Marcus Aurelius
