I was a huge philosophy geek in high school and college, and absolutely devoured all of the writings by Plato and Socrates.
Ultimately I realized that while Philosophy helped to define the questions, it would never provide the answers.
Those I would find elsewhere.
Fun fact: Socrates never wrote anything down. We have Plato to thank for writing down his musings
ReplyDeleteHow interesting...a lover of sophia, particularly the more mystical ruminations of Plato as oppossed, I assume, to the more worldly (dare I suggest, scientific) views of Aristotle.
ReplyDeleteLike Pirsig, did you imagine yourself as Phaedrus?
ps Chella (Ἁρμόνιος)
It's Greek to me. Now, off to work on my motorcycle.
