Is there smoke in my house? If the smoke is moderate, I will stay; if it is excessive, I go out. For you must always remember this and hold it fast, that the door is open. [...] If I am so unlucky, death is a safe harbor; and death is the safe harbor for all. It is the place of refuge. For this reason not one of the things in life is difficult: as soon as I choose, I go out of the house, and am troubled by smoked no more.
