Al-Ma'arri's self-composed epitaph, on his tomb (regarding life and birth).
Al-Ma'arri (973-1075), was a Syrian philosopher and poet. He was atheist and antinatalist. He went blind at an early age, never married and had no children. He became a vegan in his later years.

«We are here because one odd group of fishes had a peculiar fin anatomy that could transform into legs for terrestrial creatures; because the earth never froze entirely during an ice age; because a small and tenuous species, arising in Africa a quarter of a million years ago, has managed, so far, to survive by hook and by crook. We may yearn for a ‘higher’ answer — but none exists.»
