 3 Repub|          said to me, I perceive, Socrates, that you and your companion
 4 Repub|        You don't come to see me, Socrates, as often as you ought:
 5 Repub|         of it? ~I will tell you, Socrates, he said, what my own feeling
 6 Repub|         is the cause. But to me, Socrates, these complainers seem
 7 Repub|       but of many. The truth is, Socrates, that these regrets, and
 8 Repub|      acquired by you? ~Acquired! Socrates; do you want to know how
 9 Repub|     others. For let me tell you, Socrates, that when a man thinks
10 Repub|         justice. ~Quite correct, Socrates, if Simonides is to be believed,
11 Repub|         gives, and to whom? ~If, Socrates, we are to be guided at
12 Repub|         of peace? ~In contracts, Socrates, justice is of use. ~And
13 Repub|     those who do no wrong? ~Nay, Socrates; the doctrine is immoral. ~

16 Repub|            How characteristic of Socrates! he replied, with a bitter
17 Repub|          replied. ~But you have, Socrates, said Glaucon: and you,
18 Repub|          make a contribution for Socrates. ~Yes, he replied, and then
19 Repub|        Yes, he replied, and then Socrates will do as he always does -
20 Repub|           he said, the wisdom of Socrates; he refuses to teach himself,
21 Repub|        That's abominable of you, Socrates; you take the words in the
22 Repub|          Nothing can be clearer, Socrates, said Polemarchus. ~Yes,
23 Repub|          argue like an informer, Socrates. Do you mean, for example,
24 Repub|   replying to me, said, Tell me, Socrates, have you got a nurse? ~
25 Repub|   Consider further, most foolish Socrates, that the just is always
26 Repub|       And thus, as I have shown, Socrates, injustice, when on a sufficient
27 Repub|     refusing. ~What do you mean, Socrates? said Glaucon. The first
28 Repub|         than justice. ~Let this, Socrates, he said, be your entertainment
29 Repub|        THE STATE, AND EDUCATION~(SOCRATES, GLAUCON.) ~WITH these words
30 Repub|    battle out. So he said to me: Socrates, do you wish really to persuade
31 Repub|   just-if what they say is true, Socrates, since I myself am not of
32 Repub|         is the received account, Socrates, of the nature and origin
33 Repub|    coarse, I ask you to suppose, Socrates, that the words which follow
34 Repub|       are to the gods. And thus, Socrates, gods and men are said to
35 Repub|         his brother, interposed: Socrates, he said, you do not suppose
36 Repub| censuring the other. ~Once more, Socrates, I will ask you to consider
37 Repub|       tell us. Knowing all this, Socrates, how can a man who has any
38 Repub|           The cause of all this, Socrates, was indicated by us at
39 Repub|       children after them. ~Yes, Socrates, he said, and if you were
40 Repub|   accumulation of wealth? ~That, Socrates, will be inevitable. ~And
41 Repub|           THE ARTS IN EDUCATION~(SOCRATES, ADEIMANTUS.) ~SUCH, then,
42 Repub|         right sort? ~No, indeed, Socrates, it must never come near
43 Repub|         son of a god. ~All that, Socrates, is excellent; but I should

45 Repub|          AND VIRTUE~(ADEIMANTUS, SOCRATES.) ~HERE Adeimantus interposed
46 Repub|  question: How would you answer, Socrates, said he, if a person were
47 Repub|     still I should like to know, Socrates, how our city will be able
48 Repub|    recklessness, ending at last, Socrates, by an overthrow of all
49 Repub|      easy question! Nay, rather, Socrates, the proverb holds that
50 Repub|       have said the exact truth, Socrates. ~Very good; and if we were
51 Repub|     unreformed? ~In my judgment, Socrates, the question has now become
52 Repub|        MATRIMONY AND PHILOSOPHY~(SOCRATES, GLAUCON, ADEIMANTUS.) ~
53 Repub|       should have a limit. ~Yes, Socrates, said Glaucon, and the whole
54 Repub|    laughed and said: Well, then, Socrates, in case you and your argument
55 Repub|       opponents. They will say: "Socrates and Glaucon, no adversary
56 Repub|      valor. ~That is quite true, Socrates; and yet if they are defeated,
57 Repub|            But still I must say, Socrates, that if you are allowed
58 Repub|         is indeed a hard thing. ~Socrates, what do you mean? I would
59 Repub|        PHILOSOPHY OF GOVERNMENT~(SOCRATES, GLAUCON.) ~AND thus, Glaucon,
60 Repub|       said: To these statements, Socrates, no one can offer a reply;
61 Repub|        given in a parable. ~Yes, Socrates; and that is a way of speaking
62 Repub|           such will he be? ~Yes, Socrates; necessity will compel him. ~
63 Repub|        truly in earnest you are, Socrates! he said; I am sure of that;
64 Repub|      about these matters. ~True, Socrates; but I must say that one
65 Repub|       Still, I must implore you, Socrates, said Glaucon, not to turn
66 Repub|          REALITIES IN EDUCATION~(SOCRATES, GLAUCON.) ~AND now, I said,
67 Repub|         followed. ~That is true, Socrates; but so little seems to
68 Repub|      order, he replied. And now, Socrates, as you rebuked the vulgar
69 Repub|        so; but you are speaking, Socrates, of a vast work. ~What do
