  1 1 |       understand what I was just saying—that all men are publicly
  2 1 |       and is as we were just now saying, of all wars the worst;
  3 1 |       beginning with virtue, and saying that this was the aim of
  4 1 |    should.~Athenian. And we were saying just now, that when men
  5 1 |          that what you have been saying is true?~Athenian. To be
  6 1 |        tongue spoken; the common saying is quite true, that a good
  7 1 |          any rate, were just now saying that you were ready to maintain
  8 1 |          us remember, as we were saying, that there are two things
  9 2 |       that you have said and are saying about education.~Athenian.
 10 2 |         to know whether a common saying is in our opinion true to
 11 2 |          Let us see; what are we saying?~Cleinias. What?~Athenian.
 12 2 |          And therefore, as I was saying, if a person can only find
 13 2 |     honoured most, and, as I was saying, bear the palm, who gives
 14 2 |       things, whereas I was only saying what regulations I would
 15 2 |        such as you were just now saying ought to prevail.~Athenian.
 16 2 |           the truth of what I am saying is as plain as the fact
 17 2 |         against what you are now saying.~Athenian. The next suggestion
 18 2 |      almost all that I have been saying has said with a view to
 19 2 |   imitation consists, as we were saying, in rendering the thing
 20 2 |         know a thing, as we were saying, know that the thing is
 21 2 |        goes on: this, as we were saying at first, will certainly
 22 2 |      true.~Athenian. Were we not saying that on such occasions the
 23 2 |         animals; man, as we were saying, having attained the sense
 24 3 |          to confirm what you are saying, when he traces up the ancient
 25 3 |          likings; and, as we are saying, they would find their way
 26 3 |        beguile the way, as I was saying when we first set out on
 27 3 |          the exception, as I was saying, of that small part of them
 28 3 |         Let this, then, as I was saying, be laid down by us.~Cleinias.
 29 3 |    almost all the rest, as I was saying, are variations of these.
 30 4 |     separated from virtue. I was saying that the imitation of enemies
 31 4 |      Cretans are in the habit of saying that the battle of Salamis
 32 4 |          have repeated what I am saying a good many times; but I
 33 4 |         And let what I have been saying be regarded as a kind of
 34 4 |        individual—then, as I was saying, salvation is hopeless.
 35 4 |          once for all in the old saying that “like agrees with like,
 36 4 |         we not hear you just now saying, that the legislator ought
 37 4 |          what you have just been saying. Of three kinds of funerals,
 38 5 |       one of themselves doing or saying anything disgraceful; for
 39 5 |         what is expressed in the saying that “Every man by nature
 40 5 |     forgotten, which, as we were saying, the Heraclid colony had,
 41 5 |          a danger which, as I am saying, is escaped by us, and yet
 42 5 |          most widely the ancient saying, that “Friends have all
 43 5 |       utterly bad, but, as I was saying, a good man he never is.
 44 6 |          And I repeat what I was saying—for there is no harm in
 45 6 |          with seditions. The old saying, that “equality makes friendship,”
 46 6 |          always; which, as I was saying, the distribution of natural
 47 6 |          of law, which, as I was saying, cannot be precisely defined
 48 6 |          the argument affords of saying a word in season.~Athenian.
 49 6 |        them; there is a poetical saying, which is finely expressed,
 50 6 |        once more to what we were saying at first. Every man should
 51 7 |        of clearness in what I am saying.~Cleinias. Very true.~Athenian.
 52 7 |         to disgrace him. We were saying about slaves, that we ought
 53 7 |    similar instruments, as I was saying, it is of no consequence,
 54 7 |        injury to all states than saying or thinking thus. Will you
 55 7 |       are apt to fancy, as I was saying before, that when the plays
 56 7 |         is disobedient, as I was saying, shall be punished by the
 57 7 |     import; than which, as I was saying, there can be few greater
 58 7 |   displeasing. So that, as I was saying before, while he who hears
 59 7 |     compulsory education, as the saying is, of all and sundry, as
 60 7 |      custom of states; still, in saying that the discourse should
 61 7 |   calculation, which, as we were saying, is needful for them all
 62 7 |        make compendiums of them, saying that these ought to be committed
 63 7 |         refer?~Athenian. We were saying, if I remember rightly,
 64 7 |         our law to the extent of saying that women ought not to
 65 7 |         one metal only; as I was saying they adapt to their amusement
 66 7 |          things of which we were saying that not to know them is
 67 7 |      Athenian. Perhaps what I am saying may seem paradoxical, and
 68 8 |      love of wealth, as you were saying is one clause which absorbs
 69 8 |           Stranger, that you are saying? For we do not as yet understand
 70 8 |         we prove, that what I am saying is true? He who would rightly
 71 8 |        in what you have been now saying.~Athenian. I knew well,
 72 8 |  Megillus. You are very right in saying that tradition, if no breath
 73 8 |           Am I not also right in saying that the legislator who
 74 8 |           but was I not just now saying that I had a way to make
 75 8 |          what way; for, as I was saying, the ordinance once consecrated
 76 9 |        will arise—this, as I was saying, is in a manner disgraceful.
 77 9 |  directly opposed to what we are saying.~Cleinias. To what?~Athenian.
 78 9 |     abominable. For the myth, or saying, or whatever we ought to
 79 9 |       house, as we were just now saying, and the guardians of the
 80 9 |       from touching. And we were saying that actions done from passion
 81 10|        is “at our heels”?—as the saying goes, and it would be paltry
 82 10|        us to say what we are now saying, how can any one in gentle
 83 10|        or from art, but as I was saying, by nature and chance only.
 84 10|          I like what Cleinias is saying.~Athenian. Yes, Megillus,
 85 10|        the truth of what you are saying.” Also when they unite they
 86 10|  corrections in what I have been saying?~Cleinias. What are they?~
 87 10|         will surely remember our saying that all things were either
 88 10|        do you mean?~Athenian. In saying that both mind and the motion
 89 10|         us that we were wrong in saying that the soul is the original
 90 10|        with a difference—the one saying that they may be appeased,
 91 11|         the many are too fond of saying that at proper times and
 92 11|      nature. There is an ancient saying, which is also a true one—”
 93 11|   sufferer. Then let what we are saying concerning these cases be
 94 11|       May we not think, as I was saying just now, that we can possess
 95 11|      fairest manner that we can, saying what the punishments are
 96 11|     cases almost all men take to saying something ridiculous about
 97 11|        person; though as we were saying, not if he be angry have
 98 12|       own branch of the service, saying nothing about any former
 99 12|        excusing or approving the saying, “Men should receive gifts
100 12|      well said and sung; and the saying about the Fates was one
101 12|        What is it?~Athenian. The saying that Lachesis or the giver
102 12|  effected?~Athenian. Were we not saying that there must be in our
103 12|     institution, which, as I was saying, will tell what is the aim
104 12| assertion will hold, for we were saying that laws generally should
105 12|   Athenian. For example, we were saying that there are four kinds
