Dialogue

 1  Gorg|       separate dialogue; in this way they think that they have
 2  Gorg|          with discourse; in what way then does rhetoric differ
 3  Gorg|       and putting men out of the way, or setting a house on fire,
 4  Gorg|      view to what is best; their way is to humour the assembly
 5  Gorg|       endure punishment. In this way states and individuals should
 6  Gorg|          and escape? And in this way the greatest of all evils
 7  Gorg|          reply. That is the only way of avoiding death, replies
 8  Gorg|    present. Let us follow in the way of virtue and justice, and
 9  Gorg|          justice, and not in the way to which you, Callicles,
10  Gorg|   Callicles, invite us; for that way is nothing worth.~We will
11  Gorg|         explained how or in what way punishment is to contribute
12  Gorg|         in a deeper and tenderer way than they are ordinarily
13  Gorg|        having considered in what way ‘we can best spend the appointed
14  Gorg|       about rhetoric in the same way;—is rhetoric the only art
15  Gorg|         what?—is not that a fair way of putting the question?~
16  Gorg|       your own views in your own way, whatever may be your hypothesis.~
17  Gorg|        you may ascertain in this way:— If a person were to say
18  Gorg|       them?~GORGIAS: I like your way of leading us on, Socrates,
19  Gorg|       look at the matter in this way, to be a marvel of greatness.~
20  Gorg|        has only to discover some way of persuading the ignorant
21  Gorg|        only, and yet to be in no way inferior to the professors
22  Gorg|        in them; or has he only a way with the ignorant of persuading
23  Gorg|        SOCRATES: And in the same way, he who has learned what
24  Gorg|        Socrates, in that sort of way any one may have great power—
25  Gorg|         at the matter in another way:—do we not acknowledge that
26  Gorg|          both of them out of the way; and when he had done all
27  Gorg|        No, not according to this way of putting the case, Socrates.~
28  Gorg| exception of myself, are of your way of thinking; but your single
29  Gorg|       will be burned in the same way?~POLUS: Truly.~SOCRATES:
30  Gorg|       Look at the matter in this way:—In respect of a man’s estate,
31  Gorg|          SOCRATES: May not their way of proceeding, my friend,
32  Gorg|         suffer punishment is the way to be released from this
33  Gorg|         every man ought in every way to guard himself against
34  Gorg|    person, then in every sort of way, by word as well as deed,
35  Gorg|       you are declaiming in this way because Polus has fallen
36  Gorg|        to be defined in the same way as superior:—this is the
37  Gorg|          be found to come in the way; do the many think, or do
38  Gorg|       always talking in the same way, Socrates!~SOCRATES: Yes,
39  Gorg|       has no one to stand in his way, and yet has admitted custom
40  Gorg|      freedom, Callicles, in your way of approaching the argument;
41  Gorg|     satisfied. He is not of your way of thinking, Callicles,
42  Gorg|         and weakness in the same way, by fits?~CALLICLES: Yes.~
43  Gorg|        SOCRATES: And in the same way there are good pains and
44  Gorg|         we are arguing about the way of human life; and to a
45  Gorg|         should follow after that way of life to which you exhort
46  Gorg|           and in what the latter way differs from the former.
47  Gorg|   contrary, I agree; for in that way I shall soonest bring the
48  Gorg|         artists, and in the same way the trainers and physicians,
49  Gorg|        given to them in the best way comes to them not by chance
50  Gorg|   enslave and pillage, or in any way at all to wrong me and mine,
51  Gorg|        this would seem to be the way—he will accustom himself,
52  Gorg|       Yes.~SOCRATES: And in this way he will have accomplished,
53  Gorg|        his ship in an unassuming way. For he is able to reflect
54  Gorg|     having escaped, and is in no way benefited by him in having
55  Gorg|       God, and considers in what way he can best spend his appointed
56  Gorg|      really want to know in what way you think that affairs should
57  Gorg|       thrown out—that is not the way either in charioteering
58  Gorg|      allowing them to have their way, and using the powers which
59  Gorg|          and I have a ridiculous way, for during the whole time
60  Gorg|      been benefited in any other way, if, for example, he has
61  Gorg|     shall be treated in the same way, as I well know, if I am
62  Gorg|       that the souls found their way to the wrong places. Zeus
63  Gorg| suffering; for there is no other way in which they can be delivered
64  Gorg|     revealed to us that the best way of life is to practise justice
65  Gorg|          in life and death. This way let us go; and in this exhort
66  Gorg|        men to follow, not in the way to which you trust and in
67  Gorg|          to follow you; for that way, Callicles, is nothing worth.~
