The first line of my current book is
'In the spring of 399BCE, the elderly philosopher Socrates stood trial in his native Athens'

It's an excellent book by Robin Waterfield, called 'Why Socrates Died'.

If you mean my own book that I have yet to writes, it's;

'It was a fucking shit day. Again.'

When I read the introduction to the Clouds it claimed the "corrupting the boyhood" charges started off there.

The fact that Alcibiades ended up acting like such a cunt didn't help things.
However this author states (quite fairly, I feel) that he only started playing up when he rejected Socrates' teachings.
