< Even the ancient Greeks appreciated a good dialogue
"The author makes it possible to read, but reading creates the meaning of the authorship."
Love this line. God creates, man appreciates, and both give purpose to the other.

If I may ask, what were your inspirations for writing this? Your gemini capsule gave me the impression you've read a lot of philosophy books. Looking for some recommendations : )
The format itself is a straightforward homage to Plato. Everyone should read Plato, at least the early-middle stuff, they're an absolute delight. Even completely ignoring the philosophy, it's fun to read about the exploits of Socrates, the original forum troll.
The key to appreciating philosophy is to find questions that appeal to you personally. Sometimes questions need to be posed in the right way before they start becoming appealing.
If you think you'll like the older stuff like I do, my best tip to find authors that appeal to you is to listen through either Stephen West's 'Philosophize This!' or Peter Adamson's 'The History of Philosophy Without Any Gaps' (the latter is a bit more dry and academic) and then just read any authors that tickle your fancy. Just find some interesting loose end and tug at it it'll start unraveling itself.
But yeah, the ancient stuff is surprisingly readable. Except perhaps Aristotle. His extant works are extremely dry and technical. If you really wanna do your homework when it comes to antique philosophy, go read Homer first, as everyone in antiquity just *loves* dropping references to Homer.
