❝ Citação
By definition, the fear of death cannot be based in experience as no one experiences death twice, as it were. Nor can the fear of death be ascribed to our natural, material constitution. Therefore, Radicati goes on, the fear of death has been imposed on humankind by, ‘Ambitious Men, who, not contenting themselves with the State of Equality which Nature had given them, took it into their heads to thirst for Dominion over others.’
Passagem de Notes on Suicide, de Simon Critchley.
