On Old Age 論老年, Cicero 西塞羅

Book: http://www.bartleby.com/9/2/1.html

全文勁短, 性價比高

不過Cicero 死個時得63歲, 仲要唔係自然死亡. 所以佢講老年既野可能唔夠權威; 不過不管你信不信, 反正我信了. Super! ;)

“The best Armour of Old Age is a well spent life preceding it; a Life employed in the Pursuit of useful Knowledge, in honourable Actions and the Practice of Virtue; in which he who labours to improve himself from his Youth, will in Age reap the happiest Fruits of them; not only because these never leave a Man, not even in the extremest Old Age; but because a Conscience bearing Witness that our Life was well-spent, together with the Remembrance of past good Actions, yields an unspeakable Comfort to the Soul”

"To be ignorant of what occurred before you were born is to remain always a child"
