The Prohibition of Suicide Sample Clauses

The Prohibition of Suicide. As pointed out above, Xxxxxxx looks surprised at these words, but Xxxxxxxx continues by saying that ‘Evenus will be willing, as will everyone who has a worthy claim to this activity [philosophy]. Though perhaps he won’t use violence on himself, for they say that it isn’t sanctioned’.201 This time, Xxxxx intervenes: ‘What do you mean by this, Xxxxxxxx – that it isn’t sanctioned to use violence on oneself, but that the philosopher would be willing to follow someone who is dying?’202 Xxxxxxxx too admits that it would seem “a matter of wonder (θαυμαστὸν)” that even if it is better for a person to be dead, they should not kill themselves but await another benefactor.203 Xxxxxxxx, as was mentioned briefly in the previous chapter, argues that suicide is not sanctioned because humans are one of the gods’ possessions and they take care of us so that we should not kill ourselves.204 Otherwise, we would have acted against gods’
