For Epicurus, the purpose of philosophy was to attain the happy, tranquil life, characterized by ataraxia, peace and freedom from fear, and "aponia", the absence of pain, and by living a self-sufficient life surrounded by friends. Epicurus emphasized friendship as an important ingredient of happiness, and his school resembled in many ways a community of friends living together.
