Hello everyone !
Our Play with thought of the day comes from Epicurus:
"It is not just the number of atoms, it is the number of worlds that is infinite in the universe. "
How to achieve happiness? This is the fundamental question to which Epicurus offers an answer.
Pleasure occupies a privileged place in this Greek school of philosophy.
But Epicureanism is also based on a physical conception inherited from Democritus, atomism.
Freeing oneself from fears linked to religious superstition is a third essential aspect of this doctrine.
