The Oath of
Hippocrates (c. 460-c.370 B.C.)

system of regimen which, according to my ability and judgement, I will consider
for the benefit of my patients, and abstain from whatever is deleterious and
mischievous. I will give no deadly medicine
to anyone if asked, nor suggest any such counsel …[1]
St. Augustine Confessions
(c. 400 A.D.)
You seek the happy life
in the region of death; it is not there.
How can there be a happy life where there is not even life?[2]
