"Did you ever think of yourself as actually dead, lying in a box with a lid on it?"
"No."
"Nor do I, really. It's silly to be depressed by it. I mean, one thinks of it like being alive in a box. One keeps forgetting to take into account the fact that one is dead, which should make all the difference, shouldn't it? I mean, you'd never know you were in a box, would you? It would be just like you were asleep in a box. Not that I'd like to sleep in a box, mind you. Not without any air. You'd wake up dead for a start, and then where would you be? In a box. That's the bit I don't like, frankly. That's why I don't think of it. Because you'd be helpless, wouldn't you? Stuffed in a box like that. I mean, you'd be in there forever, even taking into account the fact that you're dead. It isn't a pleasant thought. Especially if you're dead, really. Ask yourself, if I asked you straight off, 'I'm going to stuff you in this box. Now, would you rather be alive or dead?' naturally, you'd prefer to be alive. Life in a box is better than no life at all, I expect. You'd have a chance, at least. You could lie there thinking, 'Well, at least I'm not dead. In a minute somebody is going to bang on the lid, and tell me to come out.' [bangs on lid] 'Hey you! What's your name? Come out of there!'"
"...I think I'm going to kill you."
--Rosencrantz and Guildenstern, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead
Weekly Update Fame
At HBO my username at the time was Nogard ('dragon' backwards), and in this update Frankie answered replied to my question:
- Nogard asks,
- Is 343 Guilty Spark's idea of years based on Threshold orbiting its star? No weird Lagrange point concept of years?
- Technically a year could mean either the time it takes Earth specifically to revolve around Sol, specifically or some other rhythmic celestial phenomenon. The concept might not have much meaning if you're from a planet whose orbit is stable enough to have no seasons, right? So the question is; Does Guilty Spark's translation into a language understandable by Chief and company simply refer to some rotational indicator - either the Halo itself, Threshold or the closest star? Or does his translation include knowledge of their solar system? Or did I JUST BLOW YOUR MIND, MAN?
