Yes, there are two very important men in my life at this moment. For the past 2 weeks, I've been spending enough time with these two fabulous men to know how they think and how they argue. And I have the utmost respect for the way they use the english language to describe philosophy.
Socrates and Plato....come on what other men would I be talking about!?! They're not exactly the most dreamy men but their minds are sharp and at the moment I have reached a point where my mind just cannot absorb anymore imagery or allegorys!!! Good god these men think too much and talk too much.
But I shall soon be leaving these two heart throbs as my final exam for this module is tomorrow and I shall be rid of their odd explanations that in a weird manner appeal to me. For example, the way they liken the Allegory of the cave to the way a man progreses to be a philosopher. Or the Myth of Metals. Or how justice can be compared to injustice in a manner that man might be happier in a situation ruled by injustice as compared to one ruled by justice.
Interesting points- all of it. But at this point, I'm just slugging through the final 2 books of the ten books written by Socrates and produced by Plato and somehow hoping that it would rain chocolates (preferably top deck from cadbury...yes I'm particular....so sue me...)
*sigh* BACK TO THE BOOKS!!! *dashes off to complete her readings...
