More quotes by Plato

"In politics we presume that everyone who knows how to get votes knows how to administer a city or a state. When we are ill... we do not ask for the handsomest physician, or the most eloquent one."
"Knowledge which is acquired under compulsion has no hold on the mind. Therefore do not use compulsion, but let early education be a sort of amusement; you will then be better able to discover the child's natural bent."
"Philosophy is the highest music."
"Then the lover, who is true and no counterfeit, must of necessity be loved by his love."
"Knowledge becomes evil if the aim be not virtuous."
