More quotes by Plato
He who can properly define and divide is to be considered a god.
Plato
When I hear a man discoursing of virtue, or of any sort of wisdom, who is a true man and worthy of his theme, I am delighted beyond measure: and I compare the man and his words, and note the harmony and correspondence of them. And such an one I deem to be the true musician, having in himself a fairer harmony than that of the lyre.
Plato

Plato

Plato
One man cannot practice many arts with success.
Plato
The soul should concentrate itself by itself.
Plato
As the builders say, the larger stones do not lie well without the lesser.
Plato
Only a philosopher's mind grows wings, since its memory always keeps it as close as possible to those realities by being close to which the gods are divine.
Plato
As long as I draw breath and am able, I won't give up practicing philosophy.
Plato
It was Plato, according to Sosigenes, who set this as a problem for those concerned with these things, through what suppositions of uniform and ordered movements the appearances concerning the movements of the wandering heavenly bodies could be preserved.
Plato
