Dialogue

 1 Phaedr|      together contain the whole philosophy of Plato on the nature of
 2 Phaedr| Phaedrus and Symposium love and philosophy join hands, and one is an
 3 Phaedr|         two, or the relation of philosophy to love and to art in general,
 4 Phaedr|       spring from an uncritical philosophy after all. ‘The proper study
 5 Phaedr|        lover who is not without philosophy receives her wings at the
 6 Phaedr|      Lysias, who ought to study philosophy instead of rhetoric, and
 7 Phaedr|  rhetoric; it is nearer akin to philosophy. Pericles, for instance,
 8 Phaedr|      from rhetoric but from the philosophy of nature which he learnt
 9 Phaedr|         in these two aspects of philosophy the technicalities of rhetoric
10 Phaedr|       perhaps in the history of philosophy, we have represented to
11 Phaedr| overpowered. And yet the way of philosophy, or perfect love of the
12 Phaedr|       language of mankind about philosophy, and is turning their jest

23 Phaedr|         which lead to order and philosophy prevail, then they pass
24 Phaedr|      the other hand, they leave philosophy and lead the lower life
25 Phaedr|      his progeny; bid him study philosophy, like his brother Polemarchus;
26 Phaedr|   unless he have a knowledge of philosophy. And let Phaedrus answer
27 Phaedr|     thus imbued with the higher philosophy, and attained the knowledge
