    Harry Pearson, Greek philosopher, libido...

    Pearson frequently mentions the following;

    A Greek philosopher likened the male libido to being chained to a lunatic.
    Who was the philosopher and what was the actual (translated) quote?

    Google suggests it was either Sophocles or Malcolm Muggeridge.

      I got a hit saying it was Socrates.

        Perhaps this confusion explains why Harry just said "a Greek philosopher".

          It was a cop-out by someone too lazy to Google.

            A Greek philosopher once wrote: naughteee naughteee, verrry naughteee.

                  libido being a latin word, I suspect it would be Muggeridge. Especially since the concept comes from Jung out of Freud. [sic]

                    Frobishers, man. I remember them. They were all set to be the best thing since J20s, and where are they now? Posting alone on an internet forum, that's where. I used to steal Frobishers when I worked at Wetherspoons.

                      I was concerned for a moment that I had inadvertently stumbled upon a euphemism for something beastly as my nom-de-post. Now I realise you mean the juice.
                      As regards posting alone? Are there peoples collectives posting somewhere using a really really big fucking keyboard?

                          Viscount, though. Good biscuit choice.

                          Mint, I assume.
