Option 2, provided I could have access to any book I wanted.
A monastic lifestyle might not be so bad. I could teach myself how to draw, read Sanskrit, paint, write philosophy, and do all the other things I don't have enough time for.
I would miss human interaction, though.
Well, considering how I was raised, I'd probably just live out my life in solitary. Wouldn't be so bad, I'm already used to spending the great majority of my time indoors, that one hour outside daily actually wouldn't be too bad. And if I could read any book I wanted, I'm sure I wouldn't go TOO crazy. :)
A really hard decision to make, but I think I would go with a life in solitary. I can deal with access to any number of books and an hour outdoors, I imagine I wouldn't go too insane. Besides, suicide is one thing I've never thought I could do, ever. I love myself too much.
I'd go with life in the cell, even if I couldn't have books I'd still take that over death. Killing yourself is senseless no matter what, even a life of eternal (as long as you lived) pain would be far better to me.
Hmmm that is a tough question. No one knows what happans to you when you die, and there is no one on the planet that can convince me that they have a good idea of what happans because none of them have come back from the dead. So Suicide might be tempting I guess, but I would only do that if I got so sick of just reading in a box all day.
Plus I wonder how much stuff you would forget in a cell like that, like what things look like and such. Who knows.
But I would figure if I was in that box for so long and I die eventually anyways I would stick it out. Just to see how crazy I get, and to read some good books.
I'd take the oubliette.
Once you're dead there's no escaping. You do have a chance of escaping an oubliette.
To steal from one of my former neibors to the north: "live free or die!"
No TV, internet, or games would destroy me mentally. I vote for death.
Me too.Quote:

I would probably take the solitude, though it's very likly that anyone would go mad.
...I would provided there were books to read.

I'll tell you right now though, put me in a concrete cell for the rest of my life and I just might get around to reading Lord of the Rings.
