Death Is Inevitable

We should bear in mind constantly that death comes to men of all kinds, men with varied occupations and various ethnicities. We too will inevitably end up where so many (of our heroes) have gone. Heraclitus, Pythagoras, Socrates, brilliant intellectuals, high-minded men, hard workers, men of ingenuity, self-confident men, men who mocked the very transience and impermanence of human life, men long dead and buried.

Only one thing is important: to behave throughout our life toward the liars and crooks around us with kindness, honesty, and justice.
