Neo-Epicurean Life Hacks

RE: Neo-Epicurean Life Hacks
He wrote "Beyond Good and Evil" in 1886. It was his second published work, and long before any symptoms of mental illness. To me, a wish to " be happy" smacks of immaturity. Wisdom does not bring happiness. It may bring acceptance, and peace of mind, but happiness is for the foolish, and for children.

“He who has learned the limits of life knows that it is easy to provide that which removes the feeling of pain owing to want and make one’s whole life perfect. So there is no need for things which involve struggle” – Epicurus

Kind of the anti-Nietzsche. Sounds like a hippie Wink
