The Socrates quoter just displayed the classic, "The unexamined life is not worth living."
I can never see this without thinking about Saul Bellow's commentary:
"Socrates said, 'The unexamined life is not worth living.' My revision is, 'But the examined life makes you wish you were dead.'"
Most have probably seen this but it still makes me smile.
