  6. #Epicurus, the precursor to #Lucretius in the #materialist #philosophical tradition, believed that we need knowledge only because without it we are unhappy.

  15. "In practice the text of #Lucretius rests upon two Leiden manuscripts [...] The older and better is O (Voss. Lat. F. 30)Offsite Link. It was written not long after 800 in the Palace School of Charlemagne. A contemporary corrector, using a distinctive insular hand, emended the text and in places filled up lacunae left by the orignal scribe. This hand has been recognized as that of Dungal" historyofinformation.com/detai

  40. "Thus time and again the Earth has deserved and holds
    the name of Mother, for she herself created the human genus
    and at definite times poured into existence every animal
    that runs wild near and far on the high mountains
    together with the birds of the air in endless forms."
