375 1 | injury. For if, as you say, justice is the obedience which the
376 1 | subjects to obey them is justice. ~Yes, Polemarchus-Thrasymachus
377 1 | Cleitophon, but he also said that justice is the interest of the stronger,
378 1 | interest; whence follows that justice is the injury quite as much
379 1 | was affirmed by him to be justice. ~Those were not his words,
380 1 | I said, did you mean by justice what the stronger thought
381 1 | at first and now repeat, justice is the interest of the stronger. ~
382 1 | saw that the definition of justice had been completely upset,
383 1 | as not even to know that justice and the just are in reality
384 1 | freedom and mastery than justice; and, as I said at first,
385 1 | and, as I said at first, justice is the interest of the stronger,
386 1 | to be more gainful than justice, even if uncontrolled and
387 1 | are mistaken in preferring justice to injustice. ~And how am
388 1 | agreeing with Thrasymachus that justice is the interest of the stronger.
389 1 | more gainful than perfect justice? ~Yes, that is what I say,
390 1 | suppose that you would call justice virtue and injustice vice? ~
391 1 | injustice to be profitable and justice not. ~What else then would
392 1 | replied. ~And would you call justice vice? ~No, I would rather
393 1 | with wisdom and virtue, and justice with the opposite. ~Certainly
394 1 | we were now agreed that justice was virtue and wisdom, and
395 1 | of the relative nature of justice and injustice may be carried
396 1 | stronger and more powerful than justice, but now justice, having
397 1 | powerful than justice, but now justice, having been identified
398 1 | or be exercised without justice or only with justice. ~If
399 1 | without justice or only with justice. ~If you are right in your
400 1 | right in your view, and justice is wisdom, then only with
401 1 | is wisdom, then only with justice; but if I am right, then
402 1 | I am right, then without justice. ~I am delighted, Thrasymachus,
403 1 | hatreds and fighting, and justice imparts harmony and friendship;
404 1 | have been some remnant of justice in them, which enabled them
405 1 | And we have admitted that justice is the excellence of the
406 1 | be more profitable than justice. ~Let this, Socrates, he
407 1 | at first, the nature of justice. I left that inquiry and
408 1 | away to consider whether justice is virtue and wisdom, or
409 1 | comparative advantages of justice and injustice, I could not
410 1 | all. For I know not what justice is, and therefore I am not
411 2 | classes you would place justice? ~In the highest class,
412 2 | another mind; they think that justice is to be reckoned in the
413 2 | just now, when he censured justice and praised injustice. But
414 2 | to my mind the nature of justice and injustice has not yet
415 2 | the nature and origin of justice according to the common
416 2 | that all men who practise justice do so against their will,
417 2 | heard the superiority of justice to injustice maintained
418 2 | satisfactory way. I want to hear justice praised in respect of itself;
419 2 | to hear you too praising justice and censuring injustice.
420 2 | the nature and origin of justice. ~They say that to do injustice
421 2 | the origin and nature of justice; it is a mean or compromise,
422 2 | power of retaliation; and justice, being at a middle point
423 2 | the nature and origin of justice. ~Now that those who practise
424 2 | that those who practise justice do so involuntarily and
425 2 | diverted into the path of justice by the force of law. The
426 2 | that he would stand fast in justice. No man would keep his hands
427 2 | or because he thinks that justice is any good to him individually,
428 2 | profitable to the individual than justice, and he who argues as I
429 2 | greatest reputation for justice. If he have taken a false
430 2 | is just for the sake of justice or for the sake of honor
431 2 | therefore, let him be clothed in justice only, and have no other
432 2 | uttermost extreme, the one of justice and the other of injustice,
433 2 | me the power of helping justice. ~Nonsense, he replied.
434 2 | the praise and censure of justice and injustice, which is
435 2 | why? not for the sake of justice, but for the sake of character
436 2 | unjust from the reputation of justice. More, however, is made
437 2 | who, like a god, Maintains justice; to whom the black earth
438 2 | style in which they praise justice. But about the wicked there
439 2 | another way of speaking about justice and injustice, which is
440 2 | is always declaring that justice and virtue are honorable,
441 2 | words of Pindar: ~"Can I by justice or by crooked ways of deceit
442 2 | acquire the reputation of justice, a heavenly life is promised
443 2 | shall we any longer choose justice rather than the worst injustice?
444 2 | wealth, be willing to honor justice; or indeed to refrain from
445 2 | from laughing when he hears justice praised? And even if there
446 2 | and who is satisfied that justice is best, still he is not
447 2 | blamed injustice or praised justice except with a view to the
448 2 | which he has within him, justice is the greatest good, and
449 2 | stronger than these about justice and injustice, grossly,
450 2 | only the superiority which justice has over injustice, but
451 2 | say that you do not praise justice, but the appearance of it;
452 2 | Thrasymachus in thinking that justice is another's good and the
453 2 | as you have admitted that justice is one of that highest class
454 2 | ask you in your praise of justice to regard one point only:
455 2 | essential good and evil which justice and injustice work in the
456 2 | them. Let others praise justice and censure injustice, magnifying
457 2 | not only prove to us that justice is better than injustice,
458 2 | thought, the superiority which justice has over injustice. And
459 2 | impiety in being present when justice is evil spoken of and not
460 2 | first, about the nature of justice and injustice, and secondly,
461 2 | will tell you, I replied; justice, which is the subject of
462 2 | the larger the quantity of justice is likely to be larger and
463 2 | inquire into the nature of justice and injustice, first as
464 2 | creation, we shall see the justice and injustice of the State
465 2 | think so. ~Where, then, is justice, and where is injustice,
466 2 | be more likely to see how justice and injustice originate.
467 2 | is our final end-How do justice and injustice grow up in
468 3 | when undetected, but that justice is a man's own loss and
469 3 | we have discovered what justice is, and how naturally advantageous
470 3 | multiply in a State, halls of justice and medicine are always
471 3 | getting out of the way of justice: and all for what?-in order
472 4 | should be most likely to find justice, and in the ill-ordered
473 4 | where, amid all this, is justice? Son of Ariston, tell me
474 4 | where in it we can discover justice and where injustice, and
475 4 | that for you not to help justice in her need would be an
476 4 | seeking, not for courage, but justice; and for the purpose of
477 4 | State-first, temperance, and then justice, which is the end of our
478 4 | true. ~Now, can we find justice without troubling ourselves
479 4 | said, nor do I desire that justice should be brought to light
480 4 | a State virtuous must be justice, if we only knew what that
481 4 | cover, and look sharp that justice does not steal away, and
482 4 | inquiry, ages ago, there was Justice tumbling out at our feet,
483 4 | we have been talking of Justice, and have failed to recognize
484 4 | nature was best adapted; now justice is this principle or a part
485 4 | Further, we affirmed that Justice was doing one's own business,
486 4 | way may be assumed to be justice. Can you tell me whence
487 4 | three were discovered by us, justice would be the fourth, or
488 4 | into this competition is justice? ~Exactly. ~Let us look
489 4 | Then on this view also justice will be admitted to be the
490 4 | their own business, that is justice, and will make the city
491 4 | trial, this conception of justice be verified in the individual
492 4 | could previously examine justice on the larger scale, there
493 4 | well that in the good State justice would be found. Let the
494 4 | strike a light in which justice will shine forth, and the
495 4 | if we regard the idea of justice only, will be like the just
496 4 | of what he believes to be justice; and because he suffers
497 4 | cannot but remember that the justice of the State consisted in
498 4 | is very certain. ~And is justice dimmer in the individual,
499 4 | such men and such States is justice, or do you hope to discover
500 4 | us to a primary form of justice, has now been verified? ~
