Quote by Epicurus
A free life cannot acquire many possessions, because this is not easy to do without servility to mobs or monarchs...
Summary
This quote suggests that true freedom and a rich life should not be measured by material possessions. It argues that acquiring numerous possessions often comes at the cost of submitting to the whims of society or a ruling authority. Instead, a free life is achieved through independence and the absence of servitude, implying that true happiness and fulfillment are found in personal liberation rather than material wealth.
