Character: Epicurus
The highest good in life is pleasure. Pleasure, first of all, is the absence of suffering (and not sensual pleasures at all!). The best way to do this is to withdraw yourself from all worries and anxieties, from public and government affairs, maximum independence from external conditions, and renunciation of unnecessary desires.

Belief in gods arose due to man's fear of the forces of nature that he did not understand and the inability to explain them. Knowledge of the true structure of the world, the nature of the gods and the fact that the soul is mortal allows one to do without religion.

- The gods have not the slightest cause nor to our appearance or to our end, nor even to the mortals continued to cry Claudia.
- No, what do you say, Abigail lay down and gently stroked her tangled hair.
