Did Socrates really say that? I wrote that in one of my short stories I do for fun.

Yea. I forget which work it was but it he said something along the lines of "We fear living because of our mortality. We fear death because we do not know what comes after. Reserve your judgement for we do not know if death is a good or bad thing." Of course, that's simplified, but I read it last semester in my english class.

Ponder what question? :beer::D

I like this quote: "I'm here to convert beer into urine" Classic...I'll drink to that! :beer:
