Plato's Phaedrus: The Philosophy of LovePurdue University Press, 1999 - 231 Seiten The Phaedrus lies at the heart of Plato's work, and the topics it discusses are central to his thought.

As the soul is immortal, has been born often and has seen all things here and in the underworld, there is nothing which it has not learned; so it is in no way surprising that it can recollect the things it knew before, both about virtue and other things. As the whole of nature is akin, and the soul has learned everything, nothing prevents a man, after recalling one thing only— a process men call learning— discovering everything...

Seite 2 - ... that reign of injustice. Not long afterwards the rule of the Thirty was overthrown and with it the entire constitution; and once more I felt the desire, though this time less strongly, to take part in the public affairs of the city. Many disgraceful things occurred, of course, during those unsettled days, and it is not surprising that, under cover of the revolution, too many old enmities were avenged. But in general those who then came into power showed great clemency.
Seite 2 - Besides this, our laws and institutions were steadily degenerating, so much so that, whereas at first I had been full of zeal for public life, when I looked closely and saw how unstable everything was, I became at last completely bewildered; and though I did not cease to reflect upon some way of bringing about an improvement in the laws and customs and even in the whole constitution, yet I refrained from action, waiting for the proper time. At last...
Seite 65 - The art of contradiction making, descended from an insincere kind of conceited mimicry, of the semblance-making breed, derived from image making, distinguished as a portion, not divine but human, of production, that presents a shadow play of words — such are the blood and lineage which can, with perfect truth, be assigned to the authentic Sophist.

Seite 207 - Silenus' statues, and I had a glimpse of the figures he keeps 227 hidden within: they were so godlike — so bright and beautiful, so utterly amazing — that I no longer had a choice — I just had to do whatever he told me.
