When the body wears out and the mind gets tired, the body rejoices in death. But it is difficult to understand how one can rejoice in death when one is still young and strong: so people generally regard passing away as some kind of threatening horror. The reason, in its materialistic way, turns towards the future and believes that it is a good thing to go further and further, even to infinity, but in the meantime it does not see that your material nature will ultimately find the whole process unbearably exhausting.

Hungarian

"Ha a test elhasználódik, és az elme megfárad, a szervezet örvend a halálnak. Csakhogy nehéz fölfogni, hogyan örülhet valaki a halálnak, ha még fiatal és erős: így az emberek az elmúlást általában valamiféle fenyegető szörnyűségnek tekintik. Az értelem ugyanis, a maga anyagidegen módján a jövő felé fordul, s úgy véli, jó dolog egyre tovább és tovább haladni, akár a végtelenségig, ám eközben nem látja be, hogy önnön anyagi mivolta végül is elviselhetetlenül kimerítőnek fogja találni az egész folyamatot."
