Reflect: when a man has an opinion, has he not 199 Repub| them not to be angry; no man should be angry at what 200 Repub| before of the lover and the man of ambition. ~True. ~And 201 Repub| motives which make another man desirous of having and spending, 202 Repub| will soon observe whether a man is just and gentle, or rude 203 Repub| abuse the other sort of man, whom they call a good-for-nothing; 204 Repub| the truth is, that, when a man is ill, whether he be rich 205 Repub| a time will not a young man's heart, as they say, leap 206 Repub| might compare them to a man who should study the tempers 207 Repub| been describing? For when a man consorts with the many, 208 Repub| he said. ~And what will a man such as he is be likely 209 Repub| very qualities which make a man a philosopher, may, if he 210 Repub| that direction; but a small man never was the doer of any 211 Repub| been given to any other man. Those who belong to this 212 Repub| one may be compared to a man who has fallen among wild 213 Repub| likeness of virtue-such a man ruling in a city which bears 214 Repub| conform himself. Can a man help imitating that with 215 Repub| as far as the nature of man allows; but like everyone 216 Repub| life into the image of a man; and this they will conceive 217 Repub| philosophers? ~Surely no man, he said. ~And when they 218 Repub| enough; let there be one man who has a city obedient 219 Repub| then, which every soul of man pursues and makes the end 220 Repub| contemplations to the evil state of man, misbehaving himself in 221 Repub| ask whether that soul of man has come out of the brighter 222 Repub| rather say, if he is to be a man at all. ~I should like to 223 Repub| the same. In these cases a man is not compelled to ask 224 Repub| and philosophical; for the man of war must learn the art 225 Repub| believing that in every man there is an eye of the soul 226 Repub| look upward, and whether a man gapes at the heavens or 227 Repub| account of them. For when a man knows not his own first 228 Repub| and be an unwearied solid man who is a lover of labor 229 Repub| as, for example, when a man is a lover of gymnastics 230 Repub| delusion when he said that a man when he grows old may learn 231 Repub| fathers. ~True. ~Now, when a man is in this state, and the 232 Repub| true, he said. ~But when a man begins to get older, he 233 Repub| perfect State, and of the man who bears its image-there 234 Repub| State was good, and that the man was good who answered to 235 Repub| relate both of State and man. And you said further, that 236 Repub| oligarchy and the oligarchical man; and then again we will 237 Repub| democracy and the democratical man; and lastly, we will go 238 Repub| spend that which is another man's on the gratification of 239 Repub| true, he replied. ~Now what man answers to this form of 240 Repub| slaves, unlike the educated man, who is too proud for that; 241 Repub| takes up her abode in a man, and is the only saviour 242 Repub| his father is only half a man and far too easy-going: 243 Repub| this sort, and be more of a man than his father. He has 244 Repub| result is that the young man, hearing and seeing all 245 Repub| let us look at another man who, as AEschylus says, ~" 246 Repub| have power and the poor man is deprived of it. ~I understand, 247 Repub| and look up to the rich man, and make a ruler of him, 248 Repub| him, and dishonor the poor man. ~They do so. ~They next 249 Repub| their property, and a poor man were refused permission 250 Repub| be liable. ~What evil? ~A man may sell all that he has, 251 Repub| spending his money, was a man of this sort a whit more 252 Repub| Does not the timocratical man change into the oligarchical 253 Repub| all this-he is a ruined man, and his fear has taught 254 Repub| and this is the sort of man whom the vulgar applaud. 255 Repub| You see that he is not a man of cultivation, I said. ~ 256 Repub| strong in him, too. ~The man, then, will be at war with 257 Repub| the ways of the democratic man, and bring him up for judgment. ~ 258 Repub| either by restricting a man's use of his own property, 259 Repub| the wiry, sunburnt poor man may be placed in battle 260 Repub| government is, such will be the man. ~Clearly, he said. ~In 261 Repub| freedom and frankness-a man may say and do what he likes? ~' 262 Repub| there never will be a good man who has not from his childhood 263 Repub| I said, what manner of man the individual is, or rather 264 Repub| And the desires of which a man may get rid, if he takes 265 Repub| see how the democratical man goes out of the oligarchical: 266 Repub| the process? ~When a young man who has been brought up 267 Repub| citizens, so too the young man is changed by a class of 268 Repub| reverence enters into the young man's soul, and order is restored. ~ 269 Repub| the citadel of the young man's soul, which they perceive 270 Repub| do so. ~And so the young man returns into the country 271 Repub| courage." And so the young man passes out of his original 272 Repub| and spangled. And many a man and many a woman will take 273 Repub| be called the democratic man. ~Let that be his place, 274 Repub| the most beautiful of all, man and State alike, tyranny 275 Repub| all alike; and the young man is on a level with the old, 276 Repub| are under the dominion of man have in a democracy than 277 Repub| Clearly when he does what the man is said to do in the tale 278 Repub| them, making the life of man to disappear, and with unholy 279 Repub| enemies, or from being a man become a wolf-that is, a 280 Repub| Very true. ~And when a man who is wealthy and is also 281 Repub| consider the happiness of the man, and also of the State in 282 Repub| wise, who is wealthy; happy man, he is the enemy of them 283 Repub| that when his son became a man he should himself be the 284 Repub| all comes the tyrannical man; about whom we have once 285 Repub| with all shame and sense, a man may not be ready to commit. ~ 286 Repub| true, he said. ~But when a man's pulse is healthy and temperate, 287 Repub| attributed to the democratic man. He was supposed from his 288 Repub| At last, being a better man than his corruptors, he 289 Repub| and you must conceive this man, such as he is, to have 290 Repub| in which the tyrannical man is generated. ~And is not 291 Repub| said, has not a drunken man also the spirit of a tyrant? ~ 292 Repub| has. ~And you know that a man who is deranged, and not 293 Repub| will. ~And the tyrannical man in the true sense of the 294 Repub| Assuredly. ~Such is the man and such is his origin. 295 Repub| probably. ~And if the old man and woman fight for their 296 Repub| the character of the worst man: he is the waking reality 297 Repub| must not the tyrannical man be like the tyrannical State, 298 Repub| State, and the democratical man like the democratical State; 299 Repub| virtue and happiness, so is man in relation to man? ~To 300 Repub| so is man in relation to man? ~To be sure. ~Then comparing 301 Repub| and enslaved. ~Then if the man is like the State, I said, 302 Repub| such a State and such a man be always full of fear? ~ 303 Repub| Certainly not. ~And is there any man in whom you will find more 304 Repub| misery than in the tyrannical man, who is in a fury of passions 305 Repub| evils in the tyrannical man, what do you say of him? ~ 306 Repub| who will not suffer one man to be the master of another, 307 Repub| own person-the tyrannical man, I mean-whom you just now 308 Repub| a diseased or paralytic man who is compelled to pass 309 Repub| miserable as himself. ~No man of any sense will dispute 310 Repub| he who is the most royal man and king over himself; and 311 Repub| the worst and most unjust man is also the most miserable, 312 Repub| which, as we were saying, a man learns, another with which 313 Repub| their object; for the rich man and the brave man and the 314 Repub| the rich man and the brave man and the wise man alike have 315 Repub| the brave man and the wise man alike have their crowd of 316 Repub| the covetous or ambitious man, but only by the philosopher? ~ 317 Repub| Unquestionably, he said, the wise man speaks with authority when 318 Repub| succession, then, has the just man overthrown the unjust in 319 Repub| Will not the passionate man who carries his passion 320 Repub| Then if the good and just man be thus superior in pleasure 321 Repub| a lion, and a third of a man, the second smaller than 322 Repub| a single image, as of a man, so that he who is not able 323 Repub| to starve and weaken the man, who is consequently liable 324 Repub| speak and act as to give the man within him in some way or 325 Repub| subjects the beast to the man, or rather to the god in 326 Repub| or rather to the god in man? and the ignoble that which 327 Repub| that which subjects the man to the beast?" He can hardly 328 Repub| question: "Then how would a man profit if he received gold 329 Repub| Who can imagine that a man who sold his son or daughter 330 Repub| Very true. ~And is not a man reproached for flattery 331 Repub| ground can we say that a man is profited by injustice 332 Repub| which will make him a worse man, even though he acquire 333 Repub| this nobler purpose the man of understanding will devote 334 Repub| likely to make him a better man; but those, whether private 335 Repub| charming tragic company; but a man is not to be reverenced 336 Repub| What an extraordinary man! ~Wait a little, and there 337 Repub| informs us that he has found a man who knows all the arts, 338 Repub| and of every action of man, is relative to the use 339 Repub| And what is the faculty in man to which imitation is addressed? ~ 340 Repub| of circumstances is the man at unity with himself-or, 341 Repub| we not saying that a good man, who has the misfortune 342 Repub| sorrow? ~True. ~But when a man is drawn in two opposite 343 Repub| the way, so in the soul of man, as we maintain, the imitative 344 Repub| telling him what a good man he is, and making a fuss 345 Repub| than appears, whether a man is to be good or bad. And 346 Repub| I said, that the soul of man is immortal and imperishable? ~ 347 Repub| that the unjust and foolish man, when he is detected, perishes 348 Repub| not to be affirmed by any man. ~And surely, he replied, 349 Repub| in her own nature. Let a man do what is just, whether 350 Repub| assumption that the just man should appear unjust and 351 Repub| be our notion of the just man, that even when he is in 352 Repub| to be like God, as far as man can attain the divine likeness, 353 Repub| reckoned to be the length of man's life, and the penalty 354 Repub| Virtue is free, and as a man honors or dishonors her 355 Repub| lives of every animal and of man in every condition.
