  7 Repub|             that is very true, but may I ask another question?-

 12 Repub|         upon us. Polemarchus and I may have been guilty of a little
 13 Repub|        answers? ~I dare say that I may, notwithstanding the danger,
 14 Repub|          in making their laws they may sometimes make them rightly,
 15 Repub|           admitted that the rulers may be mistaken about their

 31 Repub|           action, in order that he may have more than all? ~True. ~
 32 Repub|          more than all? ~True. ~We may put the matter thus, I said-the
 33 Repub|           of justice and injustice may be carried on regularly.
 34 Repub|        would not deny that a State may be unjust and may be unjustly
 35 Repub|            State may be unjust and may be unjustly attempting to
 36 Repub|           enslave other States, or may have already enslaved them,
 37 Repub|         already enslaved them, and may be holding many of them
 38 Repub|         the ear? ~No. These, then, may be truly said to be the
 39 Repub|        ends of these organs? ~They may. ~But you can cut off a
 40 Repub|           for the purpose? ~True. ~May we not say that this is
 41 Repub|         end of a pruning-hook? ~We may. ~Then now I think you will

 44 Repub|            to describe; but as you may think the description a

 56 Repub|           State is completed there may be a hope that the object
 57 Repub|       supply this great demand: We may suppose that one man is

 59 Repub|     builders as well as husbandmen may have draught cattle, and
 60 Repub|          And with such a diet they may be expected to live in peace
 61 Repub|         good or harm, thus much we may affirm, that now we have
 62 Repub|         easily acquired that a man may be a warrior who is also
 63 Repub|            am speaking, I replied, may be also seen in the dog,
 64 Repub|         the same, he replied. ~And may we not say confidently of
 65 Repub|            and knowledge? ~That we may safely affirm. ~Then he
 66 Repub|          not this an inquiry which may be expected to throw light
 67 Repub|              I do. ~And literature may be either true or false? ~
 68 Repub|        hear any casual tales which may be devised by casual persons,
 69 Repub|            speaking? he said. ~You may find a model of the lesser
 70 Repub|        permitted to say; though he may say that the wicked are
 71 Repub|           shapes? ~He cannot. ~But may he not change and transform
 72 Repub|      witchcraft and deception they may make us think that they

 74 Repub|        soul of him who is deceived may be called the true lie;
 75 Repub|            say not. ~Or perhaps he may tell a lie because he is
 76 Repub|          is inconceivable. ~But he may have friends who are senseless
 77 Repub|        that these horrible stories may not have a use of some kind;
 78 Repub|            nerves of our guardians may be rendered too excitable
 79 Repub|      misfortune of this sort which may befall him. ~Yes, he will
 80 Repub|         defenders of their country may scorn to do the like. ~That
 81 Repub|       rebuke any inclination which may arise in his mind to say
 82 Repub|           with their own citizens, may be allowed to lie for the
 83 Repub|         They are ill spoken. ~They may very possibly afford some
 84 Repub|          understand; and perhaps I may be more intelligible if
 85 Repub|            replied. ~And narration may be either simple narration
 86 Repub|          in the person of another, may we not say that he assimilates
 87 Repub|          the narrative of the poet may be said to proceed by way
 88 Repub|           However, in order that I may make my meaning quite clear,
 89 Repub|          quite clear, and that you may no more say, "I don't understand,"
 90 Repub|       understand, he said. ~Or you may suppose the opposite case-that
 91 Repub|             Yes, I said; but there may be more than this in question:
 92 Repub|           but whither the argument may blow, thither we go. ~And
 93 Repub|         true, he replied. ~Neither may they imitate smiths or other
 94 Repub|     callings of any of these? ~Nor may they imitate the neighing
 95 Repub|      madness be forbidden, neither may they copy the behavior of

 97 Repub|       relates to the story or myth may be considered to be finished;
 98 Repub|           they should be; though I may guess. ~At any rate you
 99 Repub|         that degree of knowledge I may presuppose? ~Yes, he said;
100 Repub|          said; so much as that you may. ~And as for the words,
101 Repub|            city, and the shepherds may have a pipe in the country. ~
102 Repub|          also the loveliest? ~That may be assumed. ~And the man
103 Repub|            the body as far as this may be possible. What do you
104 Repub|           do you mean? ~My meaning may be learned from Homer; he,

107 Repub|    therefore our politic Asclepius may be supposed to have exhibited
108 Repub|       crime, only in order that he may quickly infer the crimes

110 Repub|          strings of an instrument) may be relaxed or drawn tighter
111 Repub|        attempers them to the soul, may be rightly called the true
112 Repub|        every age, in order that we may see whether they preserve
113 Repub|           he replied. A resolution may go out of a man's mind either
114 Repub|           everything that deceives may be said to enchant. ~Therefore,
115 Repub|            in the furnace, that we may discover whether they are
116 Repub|     citizens at home, that the one may not have the will, or the
117 Repub|            before called guardians may be more properly designated
118 Repub|            you, he said. ~How then may we devise one of those needful
119 Repub|     spoke-just one royal lie which may deceive the rulers, if that
120 Repub|          or artisan, just as there may be sons of artisans who
121 Repub| accomplishing this; but their sons may be made to believe in the
122 Repub|     however, of the fiction, which may now fly abroad upon the
123 Repub|         enemies, who, like wolves, may come down on the fold from
124 Repub|        stronger than our citizens, may not grow to be too much
125 Repub|           education, whatever that may be, will have the greatest
126 Repub|          alone of all the citizens may not touch or handle silver
127 Repub|        hand. For all which reasons may we not say that thus shall
128 Repub|       guard? ~Yes, I said; and you may add that they are only fed,
129 Repub|            they are, our guardians may very likely be the happiest
130 Repub|          which occurs to me. ~What may that be? ~There seem to
131 Repub|            Likely enough. ~Then we may assume that our athletes
132 Repub|         permitted to have, but you may; do you therefore come and
133 Repub|  sufficient for our purpose. ~What may that be? he asked. ~Education,
134 Repub|        they will be afraid that he may be praising, not new songs,
135 Repub|           said Adeimantus; and you may add my suffrage to Damon'
136 Repub|            result is reached which may be good, and may be the
137 Repub|     reached which may be good, and may be the reverse of good? ~
138 Repub|          what would you say? there may also arise questions about
139 Repub|       market and harbor dues which may be required, and in general
140 Repub|           The rest of the citizens may be courageous or may be
141 Repub|      citizens may be courageous or may be cowardly, but their courage
142 Repub|        order that the white ground may take the purple hue in full
143 Repub|            Most certainly. ~Then I may infer courage to be such
144 Repub|              Why, yes, said I, you may, and if you add the words "
145 Repub|          traces of the same notion may be found in language. ~No
146 Repub|           as you will acknowledge, may be justly called master
147 Repub|            true. These two, as you may perceive, have a place in
148 Repub|            there be any city which may be described as master of
149 Repub|         and master of itself, ours may claim such a designation? ~
150 Repub|         Certainly, he replied. ~It may also be called temperate,
151 Repub|     anything else. Most truly then may we deem temperance to be
152 Repub|           you. ~And so, I said, we may consider three out of the
153 Repub|          business in a certain way may be assumed to be justice.
154 Repub|        other ground but that a man may neither take what is another'
155 Repub|    greatest harm to the State, and may be most justly termed evil-doing? ~
156 Repub|           two when rubbed together may possibly strike a light
157 Repub|           so of the individual; we may assume that he has the same
158 Repub|         found in the State; and he may be rightly described in
159 Repub|         and a longer one. Still we may arrive at a solution not
160 Repub|          of the previous inquiry. ~May we not be satisfied with
161 Repub|     Northern nations; and the same may be said of the love of knowledge,
162 Repub|           the love of money, which may, with equal truth, be attributed
163 Repub|           at the same time (and he may say the same of anything
164 Repub|    thinking. ~Yet, I said, that we may not be compelled to examine
165 Repub|      object. ~But here a confusion may arise; and I should wish
166 Repub|         mean to say that relatives may not be disparate, or that
167 Repub|        disease? ~Clearly. ~Then we may fairly assume that they
168 Repub|            which a man reasons, we may call the rational principle
169 Repub|   flutterings of any other desire, may be termed the irrational
170 Repub|   satisfactions? ~Yes, he said, we may fairly assume them to be
171 Repub|           which the injured person may inflict upon him-these he
172 Repub|       auxiliaries, counsellors, so may there not be in the individual
173 Repub|          that is easily proved: We may observe even in young children
174 Repub|         Excellent, I said, and you may see passion equally in brute
175 Repub|        what you are saying. And we may once more appeal to the
176 Repub|       principles within him, which may be compared to the higher,
177 Repub|   falsehood? ~Most certainly not. ~May we say so, then? ~Let us
178 Repub|          near the spot at which we may see the truth in the clearest
179 Repub|        tower of speculation, a man may look down and see that virtue
180 Repub|         been describing, and which may be said to have two names,
181 Repub|           explained; for community may be of many kinds. Please,
182 Repub|      resolution, said Glaucon, you may regard me as saying: Agreed. ~
183 Repub|             said Thrasymachus, you may consider us all to be equally
184 Repub|     practicability of what is said may be doubted; and looked at
185 Repub|       guilt, and what holds at law may hold in argument. ~Then
186 Repub|          do you mean? ~What I mean may be put into the form of
187 Repub|        carried out, being unusual, may appear ridiculous. ~No doubt
188 Repub|         some other miraculous help may save us? ~I suppose so,
189 Repub|         who is in mind a physician may be said to have the same
190 Repub|          the argument, and then we may hope to show him that there
191 Repub|           me, I replied: Well, and may we not further say that
192 Repub|          law about women, which we may say that we have now escaped;
193 Repub|            that a good many doubts may be raised about both. ~You
194 Repub|         our herd, as the guardians may be termed, breaking out
195 Repub|         lots which the less worthy may draw on each occasion of
196 Repub|        child; and other wet-nurses may be engaged if more are required.
197 Repub|         what is the prime of life? May it not be defined as a period
198 Repub|             at twenty years of age may begin to bear children to
199 Repub|            them until forty; a man may begin at five-and-twenty,
200 Repub|            that the new generation may be better and more useful
201 Repub|            will, except that a man may not marry his daughter or
202 Repub|           prevent any embryo which may come into being from seeing

204 Repub|          the artisan's child, they may look on at the work which
205 Repub|           they are defeated, which may often happen in war, how
206 Repub|            sake of which some risk may fairly be incurred. ~Yes,
207 Repub|        well. ~True. ~Their parents may be supposed not to be blind
208 Repub|          and what dangerous? ~That may be assumed. ~And they will
209 Repub|           in the hour of need they may fly away and escape. ~What
210 Repub|       himself to be taken prisoner may as well be made a present
211 Repub|        love be youth or maiden, he may be more eager to win the
212 Repub|           others, in order that he may have as many children as
213 Repub|       there is that the whole race may one day fall under the yoke
214 Repub|          spoils taken from kinsmen may be a pollution unless commanded
215 Repub|            is to be the practice? ~May I have the pleasure, he
216 Repub|      distinction, he replied. ~And may I not observe with equal
217 Repub|            houses. ~Agreed; and we may agree also in thinking that
218 Repub|            ways and means-the rest may be left. ~If I loiter for
219 Repub|            of absolute justice; or may we be satisfied with an
220 Repub|         the actual, whatever a man may think, always, in the nature
221 Repub|        able to discover how a city may be governed nearly as we
222 Repub|            advice, and, perhaps, I may be able to fit answers to
223 Repub|            said, and I hope that I may in some way or other be
224 Repub|        part only? ~The whole. ~And may we not say of the philosopher
225 Repub|            food is not hungry, and may be said to have a bad appetite
226 Repub|            and is never satisfied, may be justly termed a philosopher?
227 Repub|             He is wide awake. ~And may we not say that the mind
228 Repub|          to any knowledge which he may have, and that we are rejoiced
229 Repub|          that absolute being is or may be absolutely known, but
230 Repub|          term, when discovered, we may truly call the subject of
231 Repub|          is true of the rest. ~And may not the many which are doubles
232 Repub|          and the like-such persons may be said to have opinion
233 Repub|          and eternal and immutable may be said to know, and not
234 Repub|         love the truth. ~Yes, that may be safely affirmed of them. ~"
235 Repub|         safely affirmed of them. ~"May be." my friend, I replied,
236 Repub|         rogues, and that those who may be considered the best of
237 Repub|            a different stamp; they may be justly compared to the
238 Repub|          greater. ~Certainly. ~And may we not say, Adeimantus,
239 Repub|            the power of God, as we may truly say. ~I quite assent,
240 Repub|     soothed or infuriated; and you may suppose further, that when,
241 Repub|          make a man a philosopher, may, if he be ill-educated,
242 Repub|            and neglects; and there may be a gifted few who leave
243 Repub|         justice at whose side they may fight and be saved. Such
244 Repub|           and be saved. Such a one may be compared to a man who
245 Repub|          in most respects; but you may remember my saying before,
246 Repub|            the study of philosophy may be so ordered as not to
247 Repub|         want of power: my zeal you may see for yourselves; and
248 Repub|      invited by someone else, they may, perhaps, go and hear a
249 Repub|          to their bodies that they may have them to use in the
250 Repub|         men, or do something which may profit them against the
251 Repub|            a few this harsh temper may be found, but not in the
252 Repub|            other point, that there may be sons of kings or princes
253 Repub|          one is enough. ~The ruler may impose the laws and institutions
254 Repub|       describing, and the citizens may possibly be willing to obey
255 Repub|     highest of all knowledge? ~You may remember, I said, that we
256 Repub|          pains, in order that they may appear in their full beauty
257 Repub|           right to do that: but he may say what he thinks, as a
258 Repub|           is an absolute; for they may be brought under a single
259 Repub|       nature in order that the one may be able to hear and the
260 Repub|          you and all mankind say. ~May not the relation of sight
261 Repub|          instance, light and sight may be truly said to be like
262 Repub|          sphere, science and truth may be deemed to be like the
263 Repub|         God forbid, I replied; but may I ask you to consider the
264 Repub|            In like manner the good may be said to be not only the
265 Repub|         said, and the exaggeration may be set down to you; for
266 Repub|            name (ovpavos, opatos). May I suppose that you have
267 Repub|      hypotheses, in order that she may soar beyond them to the
268 Repub|         will be his reply? And you may further imagine that his
269 Repub|       entire allegory, I said, you may now append, dear Glaucon,
270 Repub|           natural, if our allegory may be trusted. ~Yes, very natural. ~
271 Repub|          Yes, he said, such an art may be presumed. ~And whereas
272 Repub|           of a ruler, and then you may have a well-ordered State;
273 Repub|         and decay of the body, and may therefore be regarded as
274 Repub|      remains? ~Well, I said, there may be nothing left of our special
275 Repub|       universal application. ~What may that be? ~A something which
276 Repub|            power, in order that we may have clearer proof that
277 Repub|           finger. ~Very good. ~You may suppose that they are seen
278 Repub|         and intelligence, that she may see whether the several
279 Repub|        knowledge which legislation may fitly prescribe; and we

285 Repub|           very likely right, and I may be a simpleton: but, in

306 Repub|         liable. ~What evil? ~A man may sell all that he has, and
307 Repub|           that he has, and another may acquire his property; yet

309 Repub|           was only a spendthrift. ~May we not say that this is
310 Repub|           who is not a ruler. ~And may we be so bold as to affirm

377 Repub|         with his words and phrases may be said to lay on the colors
378 Repub|       right form. ~Most true. ~And may we not say the same of all

389 Repub|         metre? ~Certainly. ~And we may further grant to those of
390 Repub|            to her strains; that we may not fall away into the childish
