"Glad and cheerful, let us say, as we go to our rest: ‘I have finished living; I have run the course that
fortune set for me’. If God gives us another day, let us receive it with joy. The happiest person,
who owns himself more fully, is the one who waits for the next day without anxiety. Anyone who
can say, ‘I have had my life’ rises with a bonus, receiving one more day."
~ Seneca, Letters, 12.9
