Dialogue

  1 Phaedr|              with the Symposium, and may be regarded either as introducing
  2 Phaedr|           considered. And perhaps we may arrive at some conclusion
  3 Phaedr|            different from his, if he may be allowed the use of a
  4 Phaedr|            every other good, that he may have him all to himself.
  5 Phaedr|             enemy, and the spectacle may be seen of the lover running
  6 Phaedr|              heaven’s blessings, and may sometimes be a great deal
  7 Phaedr|              and in others. Her form may be described in a figure
  8 Phaedr|              heaven, and he who will may freely behold them. The
  9 Phaedr|            choice. The soul of a man may descend into a beast, and
 10 Phaedr|          lower life of ambition they may still have a happy destiny,
 11 Phaedr|            being a writer; but there may be disgrace in being a bad
 12 Phaedr|            who are chirruping around may carry our words to the Muses,
 13 Phaedr|              will probably make fun, may be gathered the lesson that
 14 Phaedr|              invention of the writer may suggest, or his fancy wander.
 15 Phaedr|            imagination of Plato, and may be compared to the parodies
 16 Phaedr|        better than the ‘lover’s.’~We may raise the same question
 17 Phaedr|              Among ourselves,’ as we may say, a little parodying
 18 Phaedr|         offence, seldom changes, and may be dissolved from time to
 19 Phaedr|            friends than of wives—you may have more of them and they
 20 Phaedr|            them marry (something too may be conceded to the animal
 21 Phaedr|           degree of seriousness,’ we may appropriate to ourselves
 22 Phaedr|          lower life of ambition they may be taken off their guard
 23 Phaedr|             have once conquered they may be happy enough.~The language
 24 Phaedr| representation of Plato.~Thus far we may believe that Plato was serious
 25 Phaedr|           the character of a god? He may have had no other account
 26 Phaedr|           follow, that even a tyrant may live righteously in the
 27 Phaedr|              theology’ of the future may also be discerned in him: (
 28 Phaedr|            one, as a sort of madman, may be compared with the Republic
 29 Phaedr|              these two kinds of love may be compared to the opposition
 30 Phaedr|              but fleeting aspiration may return into the nature of
 31 Phaedr|             way was wisdom seen.’~We may now pass on to the second
 32 Phaedr|           there are many texts which may help us to speak and to
 33 Phaedr|           all that, in order that we may exhibit Him as the fairest
 34 Phaedr|             after all? (Symp.) So we may fill up the sketch of Socrates,
 35 Phaedr|          parts in a whole, and which may also be regarded (compare
 36 Phaedr|              to writing, in which he may seem also to be doing an
 37 Phaedr|              contained a truth; they may be compared with one another,
 38 Phaedr|              in the inward soul, and may the inward and outward man
 39 Phaedr|           outward man be at one.’ We may further compare the words
 40 Phaedr|              read of all men.’ There may be a use in writing as a
 41 Phaedr|               Something like this we may believe to have passed before
 42 Phaedr|            and of the deepest wisdom may be also noted; such as the
 43 Phaedr|            favour shown to Isocrates may possibly be accounted for
 44 Phaedr|             subject of the Dialogue, may seem to merit a more particular
 45 Phaedr|              entirely free from what may be termed the Euhemerism
 46 Phaedr|        allusion to the serpent Typho may be noted in passing; also
 47 Phaedr|              this or in another life may reveal to her.~ON THE DECLINE
 48 Phaedr|         Plato with prophetic insight may have seen, from afar, the
 49 Phaedr|         these questions many answers may be given, which if not the
 50 Phaedr|          without relief or light. We may say that this, like several
 51 Phaedr|           sciolism and scholasticism may possibly once more get the
 52 Phaedr|          that the Muse of Literature may transfer herself to other
 53 Phaedr|            at all, such a degeneracy may be averted. Is there any
 54 Phaedr|          living under new conditions may lead to many new combinations
 55 Phaedr|           such a hope or promise. It may be truly answered that at
 56 Phaedr|           parts of them, their minds may be expected to have a larger
 57 Phaedr|           high schools and colleges, may increase tenfold. It is
 58 Phaedr|              out of which new waters may flow and cover the earth.
 59 Phaedr|             future generations. They may bring gifts to men such
 60 Phaedr|          never received before. They may begin at a higher point
 61 Phaedr|             The co-operation of many may have effects not less striking,
 62 Phaedr|   communication with every other, we may truly say in a fuller sense
 63 Phaedr|            books, which he who wills may read. The human race may
 64 Phaedr|             may read. The human race may not be always ground down
 65 Phaedr|             down by bodily toil, but may have greater leisure for
 66 Phaedr|        thoughts. The love of mankind may be the source of a greater
 67 Phaedr|     nationality has ever been. There may be a greater freedom from
 68 Phaedr|              prejudice and party; we may better understand the whereabouts
 69 Phaedr|           truth, and therefore there may be more success and fewer
 70 Phaedr|              of higher import,’ as I may say in the words of Pindar, ‘
 71 Phaedr|            have any, I think that we may go along the brook and cool
 72 Phaedr|       breezes, and grass on which we may either sit or lie down.~
 73 Phaedr|          like manner a book, and you may lead me all round Attica,
 74 Phaedr|              I conceive, this affair may be arranged for the advantage
 75 Phaedr|            mankind. Again, the lover may be generally noted or seen
 76 Phaedr|            for more love than hatred may be expected to come to him
 77 Phaedr|             commonplaces, then there may be some originality.~PHAEDRUS:
 78 Phaedr|         PHAEDRUS: Only go on and you may do anything else which you
 79 Phaedr|           whom he always deemed wise may seem to him to be wiser
 80 Phaedr|         follows, and perhaps the fit may be averted; all is in their
 81 Phaedr|              detail at length. But I may sum up all that I have to
 82 Phaedr|       friends, of all whom he thinks may be hinderers or reprovers
 83 Phaedr|            in their composition. You may say that a courtesan is
 84 Phaedr|           begets friendship; yet you may have more than enough even
 85 Phaedr|             known the nature of God, may imagine an immortal creature
 86 Phaedr|           one doing his own work; he may follow who will and can,
 87 Phaedr|            not devoid of philosophy, may acquire wings in the third
 88 Phaedr|          their second life, and they may take any which they please.
 89 Phaedr|            please. The soul of a man may pass into the life of a
 90 Phaedr|             of the other world; they may have seen them for a short
 91 Phaedr|             short time only, or they may have been unfortunate in
 92 Phaedr|           corrupting influence, they may have lost the memory of
 93 Phaedr|       initiated into a mystery which may be truly called most blessed,
 94 Phaedr|             and effervescence,—which may be compared to the irritation
 95 Phaedr|             you, in your simplicity, may be inclined to mock; there
 96 Phaedr|             a necessity to him.’~You may believe this, but not unless
 97 Phaedr|              other bad: the division may remain, but I have not yet
 98 Phaedr|             sacred pledges, and they may not break them and fall
 99 Phaedr|            the heavenward pilgrimage may not go down again to darkness
100 Phaedr|           given me, but grant that I may be yet more esteemed in
101 Phaedr|              if this be for my good, may your words come to pass.
102 Phaedr|              that a feeling of pride may probably induce him to give
103 Phaedr|           pursuit.~SOCRATES: Any one may see that there is no disgrace
104 Phaedr|             their siren voices, they may perhaps, out of respect,
105 Phaedr|              from the gods that they may impart them to men.~PHAEDRUS:
106 Phaedr|           especially in war, and you may get on his back and fight,
107 Phaedr|            truth! Whatever my advice may be worth, I should have
108 Phaedr|               Bring them out that we may examine them.~SOCRATES:
109 Phaedr|           art at all?~PHAEDRUS: That may be expected.~SOCRATES: Shall
110 Phaedr|          speaker who knows the truth may, without any serious purpose,
111 Phaedr|           are singing over our heads may have imparted their inspiration
112 Phaedr|               SOCRATES: Read, that I may have his exact words.~PHAEDRUS: ‘
113 Phaedr|             The two speeches, as you may remember, were unlike; the
114 Phaedr|         being one becomes double and may be divided into a left side
115 Phaedr|          disciples, and whether this may not be that famous art of
116 Phaedr|      certainly know this, and yet he may understand nothing of harmony
117 Phaedr|          thing which their disciples may make for themselves.’~PHAEDRUS:
118 Phaedr|          partly given by nature, but may also be assisted by art.
119 Phaedr|              they are?~PHAEDRUS: You may very likely be right, Socrates.~
120 Phaedr|       PHAEDRUS: Certainly.~SOCRATES: May not ‘the wolf,’ as the proverb
121 Phaedr|            men, but in order that he may be able to say what is acceptable
122 Phaedr|           the end is great, there we may take the longer road, but
123 Phaedr|           yours. Truly, the argument may say, Tisias, that if you
124 Phaedr|         solemn silence. And the same may be said of speeches. You
125 Phaedr|             anywhere among those who may or may not understand them,
126 Phaedr|      anywhere among those who may or may not understand them, and
127 Phaedr|              is what I mean. And now may I be allowed to ask you
128 Phaedr|            garden of Adonis, that he may rejoice when he sees them
129 Phaedr|          agreed upon the premises we may decide about the conclusion.~
130 Phaedr|            the simple form of speech may be addressed to the simpler
131 Phaedr|        disgrace to him, whatever men may say. For not to know the
132 Phaedr|         Phaedrus, would pray that we may become like him.~PHAEDRUS:
133 Phaedr|              them?~SOCRATES: Wise, I may not call them; for that
134 Phaedr|           some and taking away some, may be justly called poet or
135 Phaedr|              in the inward soul; and may the outward and inward man
136 Phaedr|            and inward man be at one. May I reckon the wise to be
137 Phaedr|          wise to be the wealthy, and may I have such a quantity of
