Danh ngôn của Giacomo Leopardi (Sứ mệnh: 8)

Death is not evil, for it frees man from all ills and takes away his desires along with desire's rewards.
No one is so completely disenchanted with the world, or knows it so thoroughly, or is so utterly disgusted with it, that when it begins to smile upon him he does not become partially reconciled to it.
Real misanthropes are not found in solitude, but in the world; since it is experience of life, and not philosophy, which produces real hatred of mankind.
