Never discourage anyone...who continually makes progress, no matter how slow.

Plato


Ignorance, the root and the stem of every evil.

Plato

Plato



Man...is a tame or civilized animal; never the less, he requires proper instruction and a fortunate nature, and then of all animals he becomes the most divine and most civilized; but if he be insufficiently or ill- educated he is the most savage of earthly creatures.

Plato



Never discourage anyone...who continually makes progress, no matter how slow.

Plato

Plato

Plato



There is no such thing as a lover's oath.

Plato



They certainly give very strange names to diseases.

Plato



Wise men talk because they have something to say; fools, because they have to say something.

Plato



You can discover more about a person in an hour of play than in a year of conversation.

Plato



No evil can happen to a good man, either in life or after death.

Plato,
