Yes, of course. Even Aristotle knew, and wrote, that not every life was worth living.

*stunned silence* - Well, read Aristotle, then, both thick volumes of “Complete works”, Princeton/Bollingen series LXXI - and I promise that you’ll be even more stunned. For example, you will learn that the fart and the burp are the same thing [but proceeding differently] - the former the “lower breath”, the latter - the upper. [”Problemata, 33. 9]. Ponder the profundity of it, for it is far from a superficial statement. Aristotle’s texts are not to be read glibly, but pondered.
