32 3 | this mode of looking at things may turn out after all to

40 3 | and in the Gods. All these things created in them the spirit
41 3 | lawgiver ought to have three things in view: first, that the
42 4 | the country producing all things at home; and yet, owing
43 4 | applies equally to all human things?~Cleinias. To what are you

50 4 | themselves nor with the things which have. Now God ought
51 4 | to us the measure of all things, and not man, as men commonly
52 4 | the same applies to other things; and this is the conclusion,

57 5 | The excess of any of these things is apt to be a source of

61 5 | severally to be. But of human things we have not as yet spoken,
62 5 | being the necessary order of things, we wish for that life in
63 5 | will describe it as in all things gentle, having gentle pains
64 5 | life is impetuous in all things, and has violent pains and
65 5 | their chosen domain and all things fitting, that the inhabitants
66 5 | in every state, above all things, every man should take heed
67 5 | that “Friends have all things in common.” Whether there
68 5 | banished from life, and things which are by nature private,
69 5 | set a watch over all these things, that they may be observed;—
70 5 | For in such an order of things there will not be much opportunity
71 5 | not see that some of these things are possible, and some of
72 5 | For there are in all three things about which every man has
73 5 | to the colony having all things equal; but seeing that this
74 5 | described; neither can all things coincide as they are wanted.
75 5 | deprived of gold and other things which the legislator, as
76 5 | is to consider all these things and to bid the citizens,
77 5 | natural powers. All such things, if only the legislator,
78 6 | the laws about all divine things should be brought from Delphi,
79 6 | subterraneous channels, and make all things plenteous; and if there
80 6 | also be a judge of some things; and the judge, though he
81 6 | incorruptible form of which human things admit: this shall be the
82 6 | given of them, in which some things have been told and others
83 6 | as not to know that many things are necessarily omitted,
84 6 | disciples, and keep in view the things which in our united opinion
85 6 | honour of the Gods and divine things, and the second to promote
86 6 | a rich one; but if other things are equal, always to honour
87 6 | a man abstain from such things. For the beginning, which
88 6 | dwelling in man, preserves all things, if it meet with proper

91 6 | consequence of this neglect, many things have grown lax among you,
92 6 | the use of all lifeless things, but abstaining from all
93 6 | abstaining from all living things.~Cleinias. Such has been
94 6 | I see that among men all things depend upon three wants
95 7 | life there are many little things, not always apparent, arising
96 7 | we can neither call these things laws, nor yet leave them
97 7 | together, and all these things are only lasting when they

99 7 | fighting, and in all other things if I am not mistaken, the
100 7 | should see to all these things, the women superintending
101 7 | the most dangerous of all things; this is true in the case
102 7 | of our minds—true of all things except, as I said before,
103 7 | the poet:~Telemachus, some things thou wilt thyself find in
104 7 | in thy heart, but other things God will suggest; for I
105 7 | them, and that any other things their Genius and God will
106 7 | further affirm, that if these things are possible, nothing can
107 7 | the possibility of these things were not sufficiently proven
108 7 | and houses and all other things are the private property
109 7 | to learn, and any other things which are required with
110 7 | understanding about them: all these things, O my friend, have not yet
111 7 | experience and learning of many things. And you want me now to
112 7 | these poets has said many things well and many things the
113 7 | many things well and many things the reverse of well; and
114 7 | the young to learn some things and forbidding them to learn
115 7 | well brought up, then all things go swimmingly, but if not,
116 7 | about our infant state. Many things have been said by us about
117 7 | horsemanship. Of all these things there ought to be public
118 7 | who are to know all these things. While they are yet girls
119 7 | and becoming name. These things the legislator should indicate
120 7 | these afford. For serious things cannot be understood without
121 7 | understood without laughable things, nor opposites at all without
122 7 | strangers to imitate such things, but he should never take
123 7 | to toil through all these things in a strictly scientific
124 7 | again in measurements of things which have length, and breadth,
125 7 | natural ignorance of all these things which is so ludicrous and
126 7 | that these are two distinct things, and that there is a third
127 7 | Undoubtedly.~Athenian. But if some things are commensurable and others
128 7 | and you think that all things are commensurable, what
129 7 | is not this one of the things of which we were saying
130 7 | Athenian. And there are other things akin to these, in which
131 7 | searching out the causes of things, and that such enquiries
132 7 | for I did not know these things long ago, nor in the days
133 7 | young children there were things, as we maintain, which are
134 7 | interweave with them all such things as seem to him honourable
135 7 | a name under which many things are included, for there
136 7 | abstain from noting these things, nor can he make threatening

138 8 | of the law, ordain those things which the legislator of
139 8 | should legislate about such things, and that the whole state
140 8 | and drinking all kinds of things, and procuring for himself
141 8 | permanent establishment of these things is very difficult.~Megillus.

143 8 | interest and innumerable other things—bidding good–bye to these,
144 8 | steal them; but all these things may very likely happen in

146 8 | cognisant, as of all other things in which a man intentionally

148 8 | of implements and other things which husbandmen sell (such

150 9 | served, the like, these things may be left to the younger
151 9 | legislation, we have enacted some things, and have not made up our

153 9 | justice, and just men and things and actions, are all fair,
154 9 | consider further, that if all things which are just are fair

158 9 | described them. Of all these things the guardians of the law
159 9 | likely to inform of such things, if he have no other means
160 9 | may easily show that these things must be accomplished by
161 9 | slain a citizen. There are things about which it is terrible
162 9 | second best. These look at things as they exist for the most
163 9 | law to determine all these things, or not to determine any
164 9 | inference is, that some things should be left to courts
165 9 | Now the boundaries of some things do not touch one another,
166 10| have supposed one of three things—either that they did not

168 10| them at some length the things of which they demand an

173 10| the greatest and fairest things are the work of nature and
174 10| and to all the highest things, and to all that relates
175 10| Cleinias; but are not these things when spoken to a multitude
176 10| the Gods, and about divine things? And the greatest help to
177 10| the first elements of all things? These he calls nature,
178 10| generation and destruction of all things, to be not first, but last,
179 10| she is among the first of things, and before all bodies,
180 10| than the body, must not the things which are of the soul’s

195 10| Number like some other things is capable of being divided

197 10| to be the oldest of all things.~Athenian. And is not that

213 10| the one, like other meaner things, is a human quality, but
214 10| fails to attend to these things great or small, which a

221 10| to make the care of all things easy to the Gods. If any
222 10| were to form or fashion all things without any regard to the
223 10| instead of forming many things out of one or one out of

226 10| is guilty of any of these things be condemned by the court
227 10| to the sanctity of such things, and let him pray himself,

236 11| who tell us that these things are true, if they are not

238 11| stated about these very things—there would have been reason

249 12| leader, even in the least things being under his guidance;
250 12| should be always and in all things as far as possible in common
251 12| and there are numberless things of this kind which one might
252 12| form a judgment of some things individually, and of others
253 12| and allow him to search things both sealed and unsealed.
254 12| in the case of disputed things, and he who has had possession

262 12| the head, besides other things, contains sight and hearing;

265 12| which they would have all things look.~Cleinias. Then, Stranger,
266 12| other virtues and all other things ought to have regard?~Athenian.
267 12| the many explanations of things which I have given you?~
268 12| enquire whether in the case of things which have a name and also
