💡 Epicurus had a surprisingly useful filter for spending money: not all desires are created equal. He split them into three buckets — necessary (food, shelter, friendship), comfortable (nice but optional), and vain (status, wealth, prestige).

Compared to #Epicurus and De rerum natura, most modern #science and scientists look like this below to me. Also morally. "No, let's not torture innocent animals today". What happened to us?

Old Epicurean mood-board I made #Epicurus #Philosophy #Nature #Art #Lucretius

Epicureanism Was Never About Excess. It Was About Peace. Epicurus was not chasing luxury. He was trying to eliminate anxiety. That difference changes everything.

Epicureanism Was Never About Excess. It Was About Peace.

"Nothing is enough for the person who finds sufficiency too little." ~ #Epicurus

Epicurus (341 - 270 BCE)

Book cover for The Art of Happiness by Epicurus

Do not spoil what you have by desiring what you have not; remember that what you now have was once among the things you only hoped for.

~ Epicurus
