Philosophers' Epicurusianist Page

Because who needs Stoicism when you can be Epicurusian?

The Epicurusianist movement is a philosophical school that seeks to balance the extreme hedonism of Epicurus' teachings with the practicality of, well, not being a complete hedonist.

Key tenets of this school include:

• Embracing the fleeting nature of pleasure, but still finding ways to enjoy it.
• Practicing moderate hedonism, lest one become too distracted from the pursuit of wisdom.
• Developing a sense of humor about the futility of life, but still finding joy in the little things.
