La defensa de Sócrates_ el tiempo todo entero
 
¡Hola!
Quote:

La muerte es un tránsito del alma de un lugar a otro. ¿Qué mayor ventaja puede presentar la muerte? Si la muerte es una cosa semejante, la llamo con razón un bien; porque entonces el tiempo todo entero, no es más que una larga noche.
I would appreciate it if you could check whether I've correctly translated this part:
If death is such a thing, I call it with good reason the good thing; because then the whole time/all of the time it is not more than a long night/just a long night.
Thank you.

I would render the phrase in question as "the whole of time."
"For then the whole of time is but one long night."

Thank you, Rusty.
