• On 44b-c [page 44 and 45] Crito talks about what his reputation would be if he were to not save Socrates. Socrates' replies with questioning why Creto cares so much about what others think. Do you think people generally put to much consideration into what others think of them? Or should we care about our reputations as much as Crito seems to?—LK

• At the beginning when Crito attempts to get Socrates to escape he tells him the reasons why he should but Socrates replies by saying that public opinion should not matter (44b-c [pp. 44f]). The people that should matter are the wise and those close to you. Do you guys think that is true that public opinion shouldn't be valued as much as opinion from those close to us?—SC

• Does anyone think that Crito's argument about Socrates sons was a good enough arguement to persuade Socrates to flee, or that even such an arguement exist? Does anyone think that Socrates made the right decision in choosing not to flee? 45d [pg 46]—PJI

• 45d [top page 46]. Why don't Crito's comments about Socrates' sons have an affect on him? Is it because he is accepting of his fate?—ER

• On 45e-46a [page 46], Crito tries to shame Socrates into breaking out, but it has no effect. Would there have been a better way to get Socrates to change his mind? Or did Crito exhaust all possible options?—JB

• On 47e [p. 48] Socrates asks about living with a corrupted body Do you agree that living a life with a corrupted body is not worth living at all?—SM

• Do you guys believe that Socrates standpoint on not doing wrong no matter what the situation (49b [p. 49]) is still a minority attitude in our world today?—RA

• My question comes from [page 50] 50b. Socrates seems to say that he has no right to break the laws that have sentenced him to death. If he believes this, then how can he claim that the people have wronged him?—CD

• Socrates realizes that he usually proceeds a question with another question as shown in 50C [p. 51] "Socrates, do not wonder at what we say but answer..." Why do you think he is so accustomed to answering a question with another question? Is this technique truly effective and is it something all philosophers are bound to practice?—JP

• ([Pg. 54] 54 a-e) Do you guys think if Crito was given a chance to reason through and question Socrates, he would have a chance at persuading him. I think just because he was his student he didn't do it after Socrates ended, but I would think he could make a compelling argument if given nearly the same opportunity.—KW
