Dialogue

 1 Intro|       tendency of Plato to combine two or more subjects or different
 2 Intro|      Philebus). Under which of the two shall we place the Statesman?
 3 Intro|           men and other animals as two classes—the second of which
 4 Intro|        animal, may be divided into two classes—the horned and the
 5 Intro|            think that we have only two species left which remain
 6 Intro|        diameter, having a power of two feet; and the power of four-legged
 7 Intro|     creatures, being the double of two feet, is the diameter of
 8 Intro|            jest which I spy in the two remaining species. Men and
 9 Intro|         motions; or that there are two gods, one turning it in
10 Intro|           truth is, that there are two cycles of the world, and
11 Intro|        which is the happier of the two? Or rather, shall I tell
12 Intro|            myth, which may show us two errors of which we were
13 Intro|         wool; these are chiefly of two kinds, falling under the
14 Intro|           kinds, falling under the two great categories of composition
15 Intro|       excess and defect. There are two arts of measuring—one is
16 Intro|            art of measurement into two parts; placing in the one
17 Intro|   democracy, might be divided into two, so that the whole number
18 Intro|            of oligarchy there were two kinds, aristocracy and plutocracy;
19 Intro|         another courage. These are two principles which are in
20 Intro|   beautiful may be subdivided into two lesser classes: one of these
21 Intro|         the characters of men. The two classes both have their

23 Intro|     courageous the courageous. The two classes thrive and flourish
24 Intro|      science weaves, combining the two sorts of natures in a single
25 Intro|           without proof, since the two dialogues have been questioned
26 Intro|          and of civilised society. Two lesser features of this
27 Intro|         considering that more than two thousand years later mankind
28 Intro|      present, is the better of the two. He wants to distinguish
29 Intro|            have been designated by two equally descriptive titles—
30 Intro|            to the State.~There are two uses of examples or images—
31 Intro|          the general conception of two great arts of composition
32 Intro|          conception of a mean, the two arts of measuring.~In the
33 Intro|           conception is faulty for two reasons, neither of which
34 Intro|        particular cases.~There are two sides from which positive
35 Intro|            Plato has thus combined two distinct subjects—politics
36 Intro|            can only proceed one or two steps in advance of public
37 Intro|         moral virtue, there remain two considerations of opposite
38 Intro|          lesser features which the two dialogues have in common.
39 Intro|    metaphysical originality of the two dialogues: no works at once
40 Intro|       dialogues, as well as of the two suspected ones.~4. The suspicion
41 Intro|       Republic or Phaedrus and the two suspected dialogues, as
42 State|           kinds of knowledge under two classes.~YOUNG SOCRATES:
43 State|      SOCRATES: Let us assume these two divisions of science, which
44 State|         the difference between the two classes, that the one sort
45 State|           all knowledge, there are two divisions—one which rules,
46 State|           the things produced into two classes.~YOUNG SOCRATES:
47 State|           may also be divided into two.~YOUNG SOCRATES: Which of
48 State|       YOUNG SOCRATES: Which of the two halves do you mean?~STRANGER:
49 State|            art of herding to be of two kinds, may cause that which
50 State|          to answer that there were two species of animals; man
51 State|   collective rearing of herds into two corresponding parts, the
52 State|         need to ask which of these two contains the royal art,
53 State|           that here appear in view two ways to that part or class
54 State|         distributed by nature into two classes.~YOUNG SOCRATES:
55 State|            pedestrian animals into two corresponding parts, and
56 State|            animals be divided into two parts, and one part assigned
57 State|          up, with the exception of two species; for I hardly think
58 State|            how shall we divide the two remaining species?~STRANGER:
59 State|            diameter whose power is two feet?~YOUNG SOCRATES: Just
60 State|           being the power of twice two feet, may be said to be
61 State|         made to go round by God in two opposite courses; or that
62 State|          opposite courses; or that two Gods, having opposite purposes,
63 State|        speak?~STRANGER: There were two; the first a lesser one,
64 State|         and divide human care into two parts, on the principle
65 State|        first place, that there are two kinds of arts entering into
66 State|          in wool, again, there are two divisions, and both these
67 State|            both these are parts of two arts at once.~YOUNG SOCRATES:
68 State|             and also to one of the two great arts which are of
69 State|         which we found there, make two halves, one on the principle
70 State| measurement has to be divided into two parts, with a view to our
71 State|    STRANGER: As thus: I would make two parts, one having regard
72 State|            art of measurement into two parts, as we have said already,
73 State|           YOUNG SOCRATES: Here are two vast divisions, embracing
74 State|          vast divisions, embracing two very different spheres.~
75 State|        real forms, jumble together two widely different things,
76 State|          only to bear in mind that two divisions of the art of
77 State|      cannot easily be divided into two halves; the reason will
78 State|        producing out of themselves two other names?~YOUNG SOCRATES:
79 State|      now-a-days apply to them; the two first they subdivide accordingly,
80 State|            and ascribe to monarchy two forms and two corresponding
81 State|          to monarchy two forms and two corresponding names, royalty
82 State|          be the government of one, two, or, at any rate, of a few.~
83 State|            STRANGER: That they are two principles which thoroughly
84 State|          at the same time place in two opposite classes.~YOUNG
85 State|         The difference between the two classes is often a trivial
86 State|             then, that where these two classes exist, they always
87 State|          and where either of these two qualities is wanting, there
88 State|        royal science has drawn the two minds into communion with
