5/18 The Apology pgs 61-70

For the third time in a row, the assignment is as follows:

Mark the text by highlighting or underlining two sentences that strike you as interesting and/or directly significant for the trial. Directly significant for the trials means something that can be used by the prosecution or the defense to make their case.

ON YOUR BLOG (You should also print this out and keep it with your notes)

Indicate one sentence that you highlighted or underlined (give page number and section number) and write a short paragraph (at least 4 sentences) that explains why you underlined it or highlighted it. Be prepared to share this in discussion.

"But I suggest, gentlemen, that the difficulty is not so much to escape death, the real difficulty is to escape from wickedness, which is far more fleet of foot." (Page 67, section 39a)

I rather like this quote. Socrates expressed several times throughout this reading that he did not take death as a bad thing, since nobody really knew much about it. However, Socrates has experienced suffering several times over, and thus he knows much more about it. Plus, one experiences wickedness in his life more often than death.

END OF LINE.

Now, the obligatory CDP update:

If you haven't done so yet, check out The Magipedia. We worked really hard trying to get it up, and it's quite a good read.

Also, since Eternity's End's release date is probably going to end up sometime during the summer, we may have time to put in some nice CGI cutscenes. But we need the software and experience to do so. Right now, we have Mmykle in charge of that, but I'm sure he won't mind having a bit of help. If you'd care to donate any software program that can render CGI animations (Like 3ds Max, or Maya [Maya CAN make animations, right?]), and/or already have these programs, as well as some experience in using them, and would like to do these cutscenes for us, contact us at eternitysendrecruiting@gmail.com

Oh, and we still need voice actors (Especially females)! Once again eternitysendrecruiting@gmail.com

SHUTTING DOWN...

"Daisy, Daisy,
Give me your answer do!
I'm half crazy,
All for the love of you!
It won't be a stylish marriage,
I can't afford a carriage
But you'll look sweet upon the seat
Of a bicycle built for two."
