“I was not; I was; I am not; I do not mind.”

Epicurus Epitaph
TAKE-AWAY: The Epicurus epitaph embodies the Epicurean focus on living for this life in this moment by accepting mortality and letting go of fear. It’s a profound expression of the Epicurean ideal: living in the present, free from anxiety about the past or future, and embracing the impermanence of existence.
