"Ordinary
people seem not to realize that those who really apply themselves in the right
way to philosophy are directly and of their own accord preparing themselves for
dying and death. If this is true, and they have actually been looking forward
to death all their lives, it would of course be absurd to be troubled when the
thing comes for which they have so long been preparing and looking forward."
—SOCRATES,
PHAEDO
