死
Men fear death as children fear to go in the dark; and as that natural fear in children is increased with tales, so is the other.
In bad times, which are coming soon, it is better to die than to live.
The fear of death follows from the fear of life. A man who lives fully is prepared to die at any time.
No arts; no letters; no society; and which is worst of all, continual fear and danger of violent death; and the life of man, solitary, poor, nasty, brutish, and short.
All mankind is in a perpetual and restless desire for power after power that ceaseth only in death.
In such condition there is no place for industry...and which is worst of all, continual fear and danger of violent death.
