504 1    |               that was what you were saying? ~No, certainly not that,
505 1    |              but, if so, we shall be saying the very opposite of that
506 1    |       enemies? ~Yes. ~And instead of saying simply as we did at first,
507 1    |         anyone who attributes such a saying to Simonides or Bias or
508 1    |              you whose I believe the saying to be? ~Whose? ~I believe
509 1    |         inquire whether what you are saying is the truth. Now we are
510 1    |       reverse? ~What is that you are saying? he asked. ~I am only repeating
511 1    |          only repeating what you are saying, I believe. But let us consider:
512 1    |          whose interest, as you were saying, he being the superior,

514 1    |               but, as we were before saying, they rule and provide for
515 1    |               why, as I was just now saying, no one is willing to govern;
516 1    |           him, if we can, that he is saying what is not true? ~Most
517 1    |           wish to have the choice of saying or doing more than another
518 1    |        settled; but were we not also saying that injustice had strength-do
519 1    |              approve of what you are saying or have no answer; if, however,
520 2    |       punished. Still I hear a voice saying that the gods cannot be

525 3    |     men-sentiments which, as we were saying, are neither pious nor true,
526 3    |        remember also what I began by saying, that we had done with the
527 3    |         style. ~Yes, I remember. ~In saying this, I intended to imply
528 3    |              narration comes on some saying or action of another good
529 3    |           company. As I was just now saying, he will attempt to represent
530 3    |           you would agree with me in saying that one of them is simple

532 3    |           matters, however, as I was saying, had better be referred
533 3    |            can hardly be mistaken in saying that sweet sauces are nowhere

536 4    |   hospitality; moreover, as you were saying just now, they have gold
537 4    |             if care be taken, as the saying is, of the one great thing-a
538 4    |             replied. ~Then, as I was saying, our youth should be trained

543 4    |             would be a difficulty in saying which. ~Then the power of
544 4    |            you will agree with me in saying that this interchange and
545 4    |             opponent starting up and saying that no man desires drink

549 4    |            the truth of what you are saying. And we may once more appeal
550 4    |          Certainly. ~And, as we were saying, the united influence of
551 4    |            of the truth of what I am saying. ~What sort of instances
552 5    |             as to be quite close and saying something in his ear, of
553 5    |        Glaucon, you may regard me as saying: Agreed. ~And without more
554 5    |             serious inconsistency in saying that men and women, whose
555 5    |       different. And now what are we saying?-that different natures
556 5    |             ought. ~Then, as we were saying before, there is nothing
557 5    |              their subjects: we were saying that the use of all these
558 5    |             with our scheme. We were saying that the parents should
559 5    |         sisters, and these, as I was saying, will be forbidden to intermarry.
560 5    |            and speaking, were we not saying that they will have their
561 5    |       community of families, as I am saying, tend to make them more
562 5    |             any risk? ~I am far from saying that. ~Well, but if they

564 5    |           question. ~But were we not saying before, that if anything
565 5    |           one-to him I would appeal, saying, Will you be so very kind,
566 6    |              can you be justified in saying that cities will not cease
567 6    |             ingenious author of this saying told a lie-but the truth
568 6    |            truth of what I have been saying? Then let me ask you to
569 6    |            and remember what we were saying of him, that he was to have
570 6    |            Then were we not right in saying that even the very qualities
571 6    |              but you may remember my saying before, that some living
572 6    |           perceives that what we are saying about him is the truth,
573 6    |           they still be angry at our saying, that, until philosophers
574 6    |              very beginning. We were saying, as you will remember, that
575 6    |         Quite true. ~And yet we were saying that both qualities were
576 6    |          what do you refer? ~We were saying, if I am not mistaken, that
577 6    |           which, as we were just now saying, is his proper calling. ~
578 7    |            and then conceive someone saying to him, that what he saw
579 7    |              sense, then, as we were saying in the case of the finger,
580 7    |              mean? ~I mean, as I was saying, that arithmetic has a very
581 7    |          good; and thither, as I was saying, all things tend which compel
582 7    |              fall short of, as I was saying that they did in astronomy.
583 7    |             power is given, as I was saying, by all that study and pursuit
584 7    |              I agree in what you are saying, he replied, which may be
585 7    |           sciences which, as we were saying, have some apprehension
586 7    |            and this, as I was before saying, is the reason why she has
587 7    |              also, as I was just now saying, most excusable. ~Yes, he

589 8    |           private will not people be saying to one another, "Our warriors
590 8    |        good-shall we not be right in saying that all these are unnecessary? ~

596 9    |     principle with which, as we were saying, a man learns, another with
597 9    |        Reason, with whom, as we were saying, the decision ought to rest. ~

599 9    |          beast?" He can hardly avoid saying, Yes-can he, now? Not if
600 10   |              tribe-but I do not mind saying to you, that all poetical
601 10   |              be more reason for your saying so. For this is he who is
602 10   |             of the bed? were you not saying that he too makes, not the
603 10   |             so, when we hear persons saying that the tragedians, and
604 10   |               True. ~But were we not saying that such a contradiction

606 10   |             himself he will not mind saying or doing many things which
607 10   |             many proofs, such as the saying of "the yelping hound howling
