I just found a small cache of Epicurus quotes which you should take the time to look. Very worth it.

Some samples:

• Death is nothing to us; for that which has been dissolved into its elements experiences no sensations, and that which has no sensation is nothing to us.
• The wealth required by nature is limited and is easy to procure; but the wealth required by vain ideals extends to infinity.
• Of all the means which wisdom acquires to ensure happiness throughout the whole of life, by far the most important is friendship.

Gogogogo!
