Let no one be slow to seek wisdom when he is young nor weary in the search thereof when he is grown old. For no age is too early or too late for the health of the soul. And to say that the season for studying philosophy has not yet come, or that it is past and gone, is like saying that the season for happiness is not yet or that it is now no more. Therefore, both old and young ought to seek wisdom, the former in order that, as age comes over him, he may be young in good things because of the grace of what has been, and the latter in order that, while he is young, he may at the same time be old, because he has no fear of the things which are to come. So we must exercise ourselves in the things which bring happiness

Epicurus by Harold Tarrant The Penguin Dictionary of Philosophy , London, 1997, pp. 171-173 www. BenthamLinks.com/Epicurus Epicurus (341 – 270 BC) founder of the Epicurean school. Born in Samos, he probably learnt atomist philosophy from the Democritean thinker Nausiphanes. When settling in Athens, he bought a property whose garden was the centre of his school, to which slaves and women were also admitted. Epicurus favoured a philosophy that would be easily intelligible and expressed in language which ordinary people could understand. Philosophy was divided into three areas: ethics, physics, and canonic. This last was essentially epistemological. It did not include formal logic, the usefulness of which was questioned. Both canonic and physics were seen as ancillary to ethics, the central part of Epicureanism. The aim was to achieve serenity, peace of mind, which is necessary for happiness. ataraxia ), was particularly important. The virtues, including justice, were explained in terms of enlightened self-interest on hedonist principles; nobody was thought to be virtuous for any other end except the maximization of pleasure and minimization of pain. Epicurean epistemology emphasized the importance of three criteria of truth: the five sense, the anticipations or preconceptions (

27. Hedonism [Internet Encyclopedia Of Philosophy] The view, first put forward by epicurus, that our fundamental moral obligation is to maximize pleasure. http://www.utm.edu/research/iep/h/hedonism.htm

Hedonism Philosophers commonly distinguish between psychological hedonism and ethical hedonism. Psychological hedonism is the view that humans are psychologically constructed in such a way that we exclusively desire pleasure. Ethical hedonism is the view that our fundamental moral obligation is to maximize pleasure or happiness. Ethical hedonism is most associated with the ancient Greek philosopher Epicurus (342-270 BCE.) who taught that our life's goal should be to minimize pain and maximize pleasure. In fact, all of our actions should have that aim: We recognize pleasure as the first good innate in us, and from pleasure we begin every act of choice and avoidance, and to pleasure we return again, using the feeling as the standard by which we judge every good. [Letter to Menoeceus] In A Letter to Menoeceus - one of his few surviving fragments - Epicurus gives advice on how to decrease life's pains, and explains the nature of pleasure. As to decreasing life's pain, Epicurus explains how we can reduce the psychological anguish that results from fearing the gods and fearing death. Concerning the nature of pleasure, Epicurus explains that at least some pleasures are rooted in natural and, as a rule, every pain is bad and should be avoided, and every pleasure is good and should be preferred. However, there is delicate relation between pain and pleasure. Every pain we have is bad, and we should minimize pain when possible. However, sometimes simply minimizing life's pains is sufficient to attain happiness, and we need to go a step further and actively increase pleasure. He argues that we should not pursue every possible pleasure, such as when they produce more pain. Also, argues that the fewer desires we have, the easier it will be to experience happiness.

Greek philosopher who was born on the Ionian island of Samos. Eventually, he moved to Athens where he opened a school of philosophy in a garden that he had bought and laid out for the purpose. He developed further the doctrine of atomism , as expounded by Leucippus and Democritus , including the idea that life exists elsewhere in the universe. In his Letter to Herodotus , he writes: . . . there are infinite worlds both like and unlike this world of ours . . . we must believe that in all worlds there are living creatures and plants and other things we see in this world. . . . Everything, he believed, could be explained in terms of natural causes. As for the gods, he taught that they existed only in the spaces between worlds, having no interest at all in human affairs.

Click Up For Period Summary Contents Introduction Philosophy Gods Pleasure ... Sources Introduction Epicurus (342-270 BCE) was born in Samos and is believed to have become a teacher in Colophon. He perhaps gained an interest in philosophy by reading Democritus . He subsequently formulated a philosophy of his own that extended the atomic theory of Democritus and his concept of cheerfulness. Epicurus probably started making his ideas public on the island of Lesbos in about 311 BCE. A few years later he returned to Athens, where he remained for the rest of his life, becoming famous for putting forward a broad-based philosophy linking the life of man and the physical world in a single atomic theory. He put forward his teachings in his garden outside of the city and became the venerated head of a unique society of men and women. When Epicurus died he left his house and garden in trust for the use of this society. Epicurus held that both mind and matter were conglomerations of material elements, so accounting for the interaction of body and mind. As a member of a society that could punish impiety towards its gods with death, Epicurus does not deny their existence but points out that the qualities attributed to them suggest an indifference to humanity. He promoted a way of life based on removal of desires beyond those of natural needs, achievement of a simple lifestyle, cultivation of friendship, and enjoyment of carefree pleasures. The Epicureans avoided involvement in public or private activities with heavy responsibilities, and praised the life that escaped notice. (The desire for non-involvement and for harmony with nature resonate with the principles put forward by
