2011 Intro|               the examination of them may show us whether all pleasure
2012 Intro|             and restoration of limit, may there not be a neutral state,
2013 Intro|            but in the mind. And there may be an intermediate state,
2014 Intro|           Another question is raised: May not pleasures, like opinions,
2015 Intro|             to both of them qualities may be attributed; for pleasures
2016 Intro|         pleasures as well as opinions may be described as good or
2017 Intro|            based on perception, which may be correct or mistaken.
2018 Intro|              correct or mistaken. You may see a figure at a distance,

2020 Intro|           which are inscribed by them may be either true or false;
2021 Intro|               true or false; and they may represent either past, present,
2022 Intro|              false ones. And as there may be opinion about things
2023 Intro|               opinion still, so there may be pleasure about things
2024 Intro|    pleasureable, painful, neutral; we may embellish a little by calling
2025 Intro|               not agree with them, we may use them as diviners who
2026 Intro|              pleasure which they give may be quite overpowering, and
2027 Intro|       ignorance is self-conceit—a man may fancy himself richer, fairer,
2028 Intro|             who thus deceives himself may be strong or weak? ‘He may.’
2029 Intro|            may be strong or weak? ‘He may.’ And if he is strong we

2032 Intro|           moderate and immoderate? We may answer the question by an
2033 Intro|               creative arts, then, we may make two classes—the less
2034 Intro|      arithmetic and mensuration again may be subdivided with reference
2035 Intro|               analogy of pleasure, we may say that the philosophical
2036 Intro|              having the materials, we may proceed to mix them—first
2037 Intro|             argument is complete, and may be compared to an incorporeal
2038 Intro|               Thus, pleasure and mind may both renounce the claim
2039 Intro|             actions (how I know them) may not always be the highest
2040 Intro|            aspect of philosophy which may not with reason be ascribed

2044 Intro|              all human actions are or may be included. The desire

2046 Intro|               which in doubtful cases may be applied to the regulation
2047 Intro|             origin of our moral ideas may be shortly summed up as
2048 Intro|               of public opinion. They may be corrected and enlarged
2049 Intro|          enlarged by experience, they may be reasoned about, they
2050 Intro|               be reasoned about, they may be brought home to us by
2051 Intro|      circumstances of our lives, they may be intensified by imagination,
2052 Intro|            ordinary rules of morality may create out of them for himself
2053 Intro|             of religion and right.~We may further remark that our

2066 Intro|     applications in practice, so also may be developed in theory into
2067 Intro|           whether in some cases there may not be a conflict of duties:
2068 Intro|          general principles of morals may be presented to us are many

2072 Intro|          measure of a man’s happiness may be out of all proportion
2073 Intro|         coextensive with right. Or we may reply that happiness is

2075 Intro|               of telling a lie, which may often make the greatest

2082 Intro|               that they in their turn may be able to undergo similar
2083 Intro|              and that of others there may be happiness in the distance,
2084 Intro|          theories of philosophers. It may be compared with other notions,
2085 Intro|            chief good of Plato, which may be best expressed to us
2086 Intro|               obedience to law, which may be summed up under the word ‘

2091 Intro|            the stake in order that he may promote the happiness of
2092 Intro|                and the like. And many may be inclined to think that
2093 Intro|          growth of reflection. And he may also truly add that for
2094 Intro|           leading men to ask how evil may be diminished and good increased—
2095 Intro|            policy the public interest may be promoted, and to understand
2096 Intro|           principle of human life. We may try them in this comparison
2097 Intro|                Act so that thy action may be the law of every intelligent
2098 Intro|      consideration of its content: it may be for great good or for

2104 Intro|               of moral philosophy, we may now arrange our goods in
2105 Intro|               still incomplete; or he may be more truly said to have
2106 Intro|              names of the gods, which may be not unaptly compared
2107 Intro|             other ages; for this also may be comprehended under the
2108 Intro|         singular acknowledgment which may be regarded as the anticipation
2109 Intro|         although some of the old ones may do again.’ Let us pause
2110 Intro|              errors in psychology. We may contrast the contempt which
2111 Intro|          anticipated in his writings, may we not truly describe him
2112 Text |          wisdom, the life of pleasure may still have the advantage
2113 Text |            now do so.~PROTARCHUS: You may appeal to us; we too will
2114 Text |            and yet particular figures may be absolutely opposed to
2115 Text |          pleasure is not pleasure, he may argue, as we are doing,
2116 Text |                that in self-defence I may, if I like, follow your
2117 Text |             position; then perhaps we may come to an understanding
2118 Text |             to a fallacy?~PROTARCHUS: May none of this befal us, except
2119 Text |         process of testing them, they may show whether pleasure is
2120 Text |            that my view or that yours may prevail, but I presume that
2121 Text |             the one and many, which I may say that everybody has by
2122 Text |           danger that we and Philebus may all set upon you, if you
2123 Text |            there no charm by which we may dispel all this confusion,
2124 Text |               is.~SOCRATES: One which may be easily pointed out, but
2125 Text |       everything. Having found it, we may next proceed to look for
2126 Text |           then, and not till then, we may rest from division, and
2127 Text |               the endless individuals may allow them to drop into
2128 Text |               are saying.~SOCRATES: I may illustrate my meaning by
2129 Text |            and a note of equal pitch:—may we affirm so much?~PROTARCHUS:
2130 Text |              you are perfect; and you may be said to understand any
2131 Text |               shall answer him; there may be something ridiculous
2132 Text |            properly, in order that we may not forget to examine and
2133 Text |      according to their kinds; or you may let the matter drop, if
2134 Text |                Perhaps, Philebus, you may be right in saying so of
2135 Text |             place, and does not, if I may trust my own mind, attain
2136 Text |            would have fallen too, and may therefore be thought to
2137 Text |              however, of the old ones may do again. And must I then
2138 Text |            sense many, and the finite may be hereafter discussed.~
2139 Text |    particulars, let me know whether I may not assume as a note of
2140 Text |             extremely,’ and the like, may not be referred to the class
2141 Text |          number and measure—all these may, I think, be rightly reckoned
2142 Text |               the agent and the cause may be rightly called one?~PROTARCHUS:
2143 Text |                SOCRATES: And the same may be said of the patient,
2144 Text |               distinct from them,—and may therefore be called a fourth
2145 Text |               down by the finite, and may therefore be truly said
2146 Text |               PROTARCHUS: The proverb may be applied to us; for truly
2147 Text |                SOCRATES: And the same may be said of the cosmos, which
2148 Text |             which for the same reason may be considered to be a body,
2149 Text |              What question?~SOCRATES: May our body be said to have
2150 Text |               seasons and months, and may be justly called wisdom
2151 Text |              source of pleasure, if I may be allowed to speak in the
2152 Text |          PROTARCHUS: You mean that he may live neither rejoicing nor
2153 Text |            and who knows whether this may not be the most divine of
2154 Text |             pleasure is a point which may be considered hereafter
2155 Text |                SOCRATES: And the soul may be truly said to be oblivious
2156 Text |             Yes.~SOCRATES: And memory may, I think, be rightly described
2157 Text |               as yet he has them not. May we not say of him, that
2158 Text |         Protarchus, by the two pains? May not a man who is empty have
2159 Text |     PROTARCHUS: I grant that opinions may be true or false, but not
2160 Text |           qualities in other objects, may not pleasure and pain be
2161 Text |           nature?~SOCRATES: An object may be often seen at a distance
2162 Text |            very clearly, and the seer may want to determine what it
2163 Text |              is the question which he may be supposed to put to himself
2164 Text |           True.~SOCRATES: To which he may guess the right answer,
2165 Text |                SOCRATES: Or again, he may be misled, and then he will
2166 Text |             thoughts occur to him, he may not unfrequently keep them
2167 Text |            bodily ones; from which we may infer that anticipatory
2168 Text |            also pictured in us; a man may often have a vision of a
2169 Text |              and in the picture there may be a likeness of himself
2170 Text |       PROTARCHUS: True.~SOCRATES: And may we not say that the good,
2171 Text |            anything or anyhow; and he may be pleased about things
2172 Text |             undeniable.~SOCRATES: And may not the same be said about
2173 Text |         existence in us, because this may assist our final decision.~
2174 Text |                SOCRATES: Then now you may infer what happens in such
2175 Text |               in another direction we may not find pleasures and pains
2176 Text |          there is no such interval, I may ask what would be the necessary
2177 Text |               Very true.~SOCRATES: We may assume then that there are
2178 Text |         Philebus.~PROTARCHUS: And who may they be?~SOCRATES: Certain
2179 Text |             This is the use which you may make of them. And when you
2180 Text |               apply cold to them, you may often produce the most intense
2181 Text |              or pleasure, as the case may be, of the outer parts;
2182 Text |               which ignorance of self may be shown?~PROTARCHUS: What
2183 Text |             about money; the ignorant may fancy himself richer than
2184 Text |              Certainly.~SOCRATES: And may not all this be truly called
2185 Text |           lying conceit of themselves may of course be divided, like
2186 Text |             when they are laughed at, may be truly called ridiculous,
2187 Text |             who can defend themselves may be more truly described
2188 Text |               but powerless ignorance may be reckoned, and in truth
2189 Text |               when they are powerful: May we not say, as I was saying
2190 Text |            Socrates, however eager he may be to assert the opposite
2191 Text |         PROTARCHUS: Yes.~SOCRATES: We may observe that our conclusions
2192 Text |              I want to know whether I may depart; or will you keep
2193 Text |              midnight? I fancy that I may obtain my release without
2194 Text |        understand.~SOCRATES: To these may be added the pleasures of
2195 Text |            Not necessarily, but there may be times of reflection,
2196 Text |             pleasures and those which may be rightly termed impure,
2197 Text |          element in either of them, I may present the pure element
2198 Text |             of pleasure and knowledge may be brought up for judgment.~
2199 Text |               and the other less; and may not the one part be regarded
2200 Text |             of the science; and there may be reasonably supposed to
2201 Text |              As you please.~SOCRATES: May I not have led you into
2202 Text |             SOCRATES: And these names may be said to have their truest
2203 Text |           pleasure and wisdom, and we may be compared to artists who
2204 Text |         saying, that the second place may be duly assigned.~PROTARCHUS:
2205 Text |               one, which is pleasure, may be likened to a fountain
2206 Text |            perfect knowledge, if that may be, of ourselves in every
2207 Text |        argument is now completed, and may be compared to an incorporeal
2208 Text |               Socrates.~SOCRATES: And may we not say with reason that
2209 Text |              idea only, with three we may catch our prey; Beauty,
2210 Text |               these taken together we may regard as the single cause
2211 Text |             is another question which may be easily answered; for

     Part
2212 Intro|          class of difficulties, which may be ascribed to preconceived
2213 Intro|       Aristotle that the same quality may have more than one opposite;
2214 Intro|         prevailed in his own day, and may be compared with his condemnation
2215 Intro|              lesser touches of satire may be observed, such as the
2216 Intro|       addressing a Lesbian. The whole may also be considered as a
2217 Intro|               in the introduction. It may be remarked that Protagoras
2218 Intro|             in this Dialogue. Also it may be observed that Socrates
2219 Intro|              knowledge to virtue, and may be regarded, if not as preliminary
2220 Intro|               a hasty assumption, but may be also deemed an anticipation
2221 Text |            man,—and he is a man, as I may tell you in your ear. But
2222 Text |            you now, in order that you may speak to him on my behalf;
2223 Text |         Protagoras is of this nature: may you not learn of him in
2224 Text |                The player on the lyre may be supposed to make a man
2225 Text |             he understands?~Yes, that may be assumed.~And what is
2226 Text |              trainer or physician who may happen to buy of them. In
2227 Text |            what is good and evil, you may safely buy knowledge of
2228 Text |            into the body as food, you may deposit them at home and
2229 Text |          heard what he has to say, we may take counsel of others;
2230 Text |            and therefore I hope, as I may say, by the favour of heaven
2231 Text |           hold a council in which you may sit and discuss.—This was
2232 Text |              phenomenon.~And that you may not suppose yourself to
2233 Text |               but to be a thing which may be taught; and which comes
2234 Text |           another injustice, and they may be described generally as
2235 Text |          which the other is deficient may be acquired. If you will
2236 Text |             opinion of mankind virtue may be acquired; no one punishes
2237 Text |             he who sees him punished, may be deterred from doing wrong
2238 Text |             evil doers; and hence, we may infer them to be of the
2239 Text |           those who think that virtue may be acquired and taught.
2240 Text |                of which the ignorance may cause death and exile to
2241 Text |             as death, and, in a word, may be the ruin of families—

2243 Text |             souls, in order that they may learn to be more gentle,
2244 Text |               order that their bodies may better minister to the virtuous
2245 Text |          virtuous mind, and that they may not be compelled through
2246 Text |             branch of knowledge which may be assumed equally to be
2247 Text |         endeavour to show that virtue may be taught, and that this
2248 Text |            saying just now? Perhaps I may not have heard you rightly,
2249 Text |               would tell me whether I may be permitted to give this
2250 Text |              another of them. And you may prove that they are like
2251 Text |               which nevertheless many may be found to assert.~And
2252 Text |          argument; and yet the result may be that I who ask and you
2253 Text |            who ask and you who answer may both be put on our trial.~
2254 Text |           there are some things which may be inexpedient, and yet
2255 Text |              and young branches; or I may instance olive oil, which
2256 Text |              Callias, that Protagoras may fairly claim to speak in
2257 Text |           bound for that, although he may pretend in fun that he has
2258 Text |               speech, that your words may be grander and more becoming
2259 Text |           conversation and discussion may go on as you desire. If

2261 Text |              any other foreigners who may happen to be in their country,
2262 Text |           Cretans— in order that they may not unlearn the lessons
2263 Text |           cultivation. And hereby you may know that I am right in

2266 Text |               physician; for the good may become bad, as another poet
2267 Text |              a good physician; for he may become a bad one also: but
2268 Text |               In like manner the good may become deteriorated by time,
2269 Text |        continuously good, but that he may become good and may also
2270 Text |           that he may become good and may also become bad; and again
2271 Text |          necessarily incurred by them may be increased: but the good
2272 Text |            refuse to proceed, that we may know his intention; and
2273 Text |             finds some one to whom he may show his discoveries, and
2274 Text |              his discoveries, and who may confirm him in them. And
2275 Text |               things which a good man may be expected to understand,
2276 Text |               For I dare say that you may have said what you did only
2277 Text |              I prove in this way: You may observe that many men are
2278 Text |            courageous. For confidence may be given to men by art,

2281 Text |               about knowledge, that I may know whether you agree with
2282 Text |            their notion is that a man may have knowledge, and yet
2283 Text |             knowledge which is in him may be overmastered by anger,

2300 1    |            upon us. Polemarchus and I may have been guilty of a little
2301 1    |           answers? ~I dare say that I may, notwithstanding the danger,

2332 2    |               to describe; but as you may think the description a

2334 2    |        despise and overlook those who may be weak and poor, even though

2340 2    |             persons who say that they may be influenced and turned
2341 2    |              we are just, although we may escape the vengeance of

2344 2    |              State is completed there may be a hope that the object
2345 2    |          supply this great demand: We may suppose that one man is

2347 2    |        builders as well as husbandmen may have draught cattle, and
2348 2    |             And with such a diet they may be expected to live in peace
2349 2    |            good or harm, thus much we may affirm, that now we have
2350 2    |            easily acquired that a man may be a warrior who is also
2351 2    |               am speaking, I replied, may be also seen in the dog,
2352 2    |            the same, he replied. ~And may we not say confidently of
2353 2    |               and knowledge? ~That we may safely affirm. ~Then he
2354 2    |             not this an inquiry which may be expected to throw light
2355 2    |                 I do. ~And literature may be either true or false? ~
2356 2    |           hear any casual tales which may be devised by casual persons,
2357 2    |               speaking? he said. ~You may find a model of the lesser
2358 2    |           permitted to say; though he may say that the wicked are
2359 2    |              shapes? ~He cannot. ~But may he not change and transform
2360 2    |         witchcraft and deception they may make us think that they
2361 2    |            lie, if such an expression may be allowed, is hated of
2362 2    |           soul of him who is deceived may be called the true lie;
2363 2    |               say not. ~Or perhaps he may tell a lie because he is
2364 2    |             is inconceivable. ~But he may have friends who are senseless
2365 3    |           that these horrible stories may not have a use of some kind;
2366 3    |               nerves of our guardians may be rendered too excitable
2367 3    |         misfortune of this sort which may befall him. ~Yes, he will
2368 3    |            defenders of their country may scorn to do the like. ~That
2369 3    |          rebuke any inclination which may arise in his mind to say
2370 3    |              with their own citizens, may be allowed to lie for the
2371 3    |            They are ill spoken. ~They may very possibly afford some
2372 3    |             understand; and perhaps I may be more intelligible if
2373 3    |               replied. ~And narration may be either simple narration
2374 3    |             in the person of another, may we not say that he assimilates
2375 3    |             the narrative of the poet may be said to proceed by way
2376 3    |              However, in order that I may make my meaning quite clear,
2377 3    |             quite clear, and that you may no more say, "I don't understand,"
2378 3    |          understand, he said. ~Or you may suppose the opposite case-that
2379 3    |                Yes, I said; but there may be more than this in question:
2380 3    |              but whither the argument may blow, thither we go. ~And
2381 3    |            true, he replied. ~Neither may they imitate smiths or other
2382 3    |        callings of any of these? ~Nor may they imitate the neighing
2383 3    |         madness be forbidden, neither may they copy the behavior of
2384 3    |              of narrative style which may be employed by a truly good
2385 3    |          relates to the story or myth may be considered to be finished;
2386 3    |              they should be; though I may guess. ~At any rate you
2387 3    |            that degree of knowledge I may presuppose? ~Yes, he said;
2388 3    |             said; so much as that you may. ~And as for the words,
2389 3    |               city, and the shepherds may have a pipe in the country. ~
2390 3    |             also the loveliest? ~That may be assumed. ~And the man
2391 3    |               the body as far as this may be possible. What do you
2392 3    |              do you mean? ~My meaning may be learned from Homer; he,
2393 3    |               such feeding and living may be rightly compared by us
2394 3    |             system of medicine, which may be said to educate diseases.
2395 3    |       therefore our politic Asclepius may be supposed to have exhibited
2396 3    |          crime, only in order that he may quickly infer the crimes
2397 3    |              intelligence which there may be in him, having no taste
2398 3    |             strings of an instrument) may be relaxed or drawn tighter
2399 3    |           attempers them to the soul, may be rightly called the true
2400 3    |           every age, in order that we may see whether they preserve
2401 3    |              he replied. A resolution may go out of a man's mind either
2402 3    |              everything that deceives may be said to enchant. ~Therefore,
2403 3    |               in the furnace, that we may discover whether they are
2404 3    |        citizens at home, that the one may not have the will, or the
2405 3    |               before called guardians may be more properly designated
2406 3    |               you, he said. ~How then may we devise one of those needful
2407 3    |        spoke-just one royal lie which may deceive the rulers, if that
2408 3    |             or artisan, just as there may be sons of artisans who
2409 3    |    accomplishing this; but their sons may be made to believe in the
2410 3    |        however, of the fiction, which may now fly abroad upon the
2411 3    |            enemies, who, like wolves, may come down on the fold from
2412 3    |           stronger than our citizens, may not grow to be too much
2413 3    |              education, whatever that may be, will have the greatest
2414 3    |             alone of all the citizens may not touch or handle silver
2415 3    |           hand. For all which reasons may we not say that thus shall
2416 4    |          guard? ~Yes, I said; and you may add that they are only fed,
2417 4    |               they are, our guardians may very likely be the happiest
2418 4    |             which occurs to me. ~What may that be? ~There seem to
2419 4    |               Likely enough. ~Then we may assume that our athletes
2420 4    |            permitted to have, but you may; do you therefore come and
2421 4    |     sufficient for our purpose. ~What may that be? he asked. ~Education,
2422 4    |           they will be afraid that he may be praising, not new songs,
2423 4    |              said Adeimantus; and you may add my suffrage to Damon'
2424 4    |               result is reached which may be good, and may be the
2425 4    |        reached which may be good, and may be the reverse of good? ~
2426 4    |             what would you say? there may also arise questions about
2427 4    |          market and harbor dues which may be required, and in general
2428 4    |              The rest of the citizens may be courageous or may be
2429 4    |         citizens may be courageous or may be cowardly, but their courage
2430 4    |           order that the white ground may take the purple hue in full
2431 4    |               Most certainly. ~Then I may infer courage to be such
2432 4    |                 Why, yes, said I, you may, and if you add the words "
2433 4    |             traces of the same notion may be found in language. ~No
2434 4    |              as you will acknowledge, may be justly called master
2435 4    |               true. These two, as you may perceive, have a place in
2436 4    |               there be any city which may be described as master of
2437 4    |            and master of itself, ours may claim such a designation? ~
2438 4    |            Certainly, he replied. ~It may also be called temperate,
2439 4    |        anything else. Most truly then may we deem temperance to be
2440 4    |              you. ~And so, I said, we may consider three out of the
2441 4    |             business in a certain way may be assumed to be justice.
2442 4    |           other ground but that a man may neither take what is another'
2443 4    |       greatest harm to the State, and may be most justly termed evil-doing? ~
2444 4    |              two when rubbed together may possibly strike a light
2445 4    |              so of the individual; we may assume that he has the same
2446 4    |            found in the State; and he may be rightly described in
2447 4    |            and a longer one. Still we may arrive at a solution not
2448 4    |             of the previous inquiry. ~May we not be satisfied with
2449 4    |        Northern nations; and the same may be said of the love of knowledge,
2450 4    |              the love of money, which may, with equal truth, be attributed
2451 4    |              at the same time (and he may say the same of anything
2452 4    |       thinking. ~Yet, I said, that we may not be compelled to examine
2453 4    |         object. ~But here a confusion may arise; and I should wish
2454 4    |            mean to say that relatives may not be disparate, or that
2455 4    |           disease? ~Clearly. ~Then we may fairly assume that they
2456 4    |               which a man reasons, we may call the rational principle
2457 4    |      flutterings of any other desire, may be termed the irrational
2458 4    |      satisfactions? ~Yes, he said, we may fairly assume them to be
2459 4    |              which the injured person may inflict upon him-these he
2460 4    |          auxiliaries, counsellors, so may there not be in the individual
2461 4    |             that is easily proved: We may observe even in young children
2462 4    |            Excellent, I said, and you may see passion equally in brute
2463 4    |           what you are saying. And we may once more appeal to the
2464 4    |          principles within him, which may be compared to the higher,
2465 4    |      falsehood? ~Most certainly not. ~May we say so, then? ~Let us
2466 4    |             near the spot at which we may see the truth in the clearest
2467 4    |           tower of speculation, a man may look down and see that virtue
2468 4    |            been describing, and which may be said to have two names,
