Randomly selected fragment from tale of Philodemos. Part of a speech by Zenon of Sidon, Head of the Garden of Epikouros. "Once we understand things are formed from atoms, we perform actions that cause pleasant joy, geared to produce life rather than destroy, yet never fear harsh punishment of pain when we die because our bodies dissolve to nothing, which disperses feeling minds to senseless state of blank unconsciousness."
