Cicero: “Shall we not allow old age even the strength to teach the young, to train and equip them for all the duties of life?”

Don't you think that the soul which has the clearer and longer sight sees that it is starting for better things, while the soul whose vision is dimmer does not see it?

But I quit life as I would an inn, not as I would a home.

But had it not been the case that souls were immortal, it would not have been the souls of all the best men that made the greatest efforts after an immortality of fame.

For nature puts a limit to living as to everything else.
