More quotes by Plato
He who love touches walks not in darkness.
Plato
Love is a grave mental illness.
Plato
When a beautiful soul harmonizes with a beautiful form, and the two are cast in one mould, that will be the fairest of sights to him who has the eye to contemplate the vision.
Plato
Wisdom alone is the science of others sciences.
Plato
The most important stage of any enterprise is the beginning.
Plato
Our greatest blessings come to us by way of madness, provided the madness is given us by divine gift.
Plato
[Not enough is known about solid geometry] and for two reasons: in the first place, no government places value on it this leads to a lack of energy in the pursuit of it, and it is difficult. In the second place, students cannot learn it unless they have a teacher. But then a teacher can hardly be found.
Plato
No man should be angry with what is true.
Plato
The god is the beautiful.
Plato
'That is the story. Do you think there is any way of making them believe it?' ' Not in the first generation', he said, 'but you might succeed with the second and later generations.'
Plato
If a man says that it is right to give every one his due, and therefore thinks within his own mind that injury is due from a just man to his enemies but kindness to his friends, he was not wise who said so, for he spoke not the truth, for in no case has it appeared to be just to injure any one.
Plato
Science is nothing but perception.
Plato
Let him take heart who does advance, even in the smallest degree.
Plato
For neither does wealth bring honour to the owner, if he be a coward of such a one the wealth belongs to another, and not to himself. Nor does beauty and strength of body, when dwelling in a base and cowardly man, appear comely, but the reverse of comely, making the possessor more conspicuous, and manifesting forth his cowardice.
Plato
I exhort you also to take part in the great combat, which is the combat of life, and greater than every other earthly conflict.
Plato
Happiness springs from doing good and helping others.
Plato
Arithmetic has a very great and elevating effect, compelling the soul to reason about abstract number, and rebelling against the introduction of visible or tngible objects into the argument.
Plato
Numbers are the highest degree of knowledge. It is knowledge itself.
Plato
A man who really fights for justice must lead a private, not a public, life if he is to survive for even a short time.
Plato
Trees and fields tell me nothing: men are my teachers.
Plato
