On Love:
The hottest love has the coldest end.
On Life:
The end of life is to be like God, and the soul following God will be like Him.
The unexamined life is not worth living.
An unexamined life is not worth living.
If I tell you that I would be disobeying the god and on that account it is impossible for me to keep quiet, you won’t be persuaded by me, taking it that I am ionizing. And if I tell you that it is the greatest good for a human being to have discussions every day about virtue and the other things you hear me talking about, examining myself and others, and that the unexamined life is not livable for a human being, you will be even less persuaded.
On Death:
Death may be the greatest of all human blessings.
On Happiness:
Happiness is unrepented pleasure.
Happiness is unrepentant pleasure.
On Courage:
We too must endure and persevere in the inquiry, and then courage will not laugh at our faintheartedness in searching for courage which after all may, very likely, be endurance.
On God:
The end of life is to be like God, and the soul following God will be like Him.
