Plato which are better Known in Youth to Not to Regret in Old Age

every heart sings a song incomplete until another heart Whispers back those who wish to sing always find a song at the touch of a lover everyone becomes a poet Plato in this quote Plato highlights the power of love and connection between people He suggests that every person has a song or story to tell but it remains incomplete until it is shared and heard by someone else the act of sharing and listening completes the song or story creating a deeper connection between two people this quote emphasizes the importance of human connection and how it can Inspire and Elevate us to new heights of creativity and self-expression be kind for everyone you meet is fighting a harder battle Only The Dead have seen the end of War we can easily forgive a child who is afraid of the dark the real tragedy of life is when men are afraid of the light in this quote Plato emphasizes the importance of confronting and embracing truth and knowledge even if it may be uncomfortable or challenging Plato suggests that fear of the unknown represented by darkness is natural in children and easily forgivable however fear of the truth or the light is a tragedy for adults the price good men pay for indifference to public affairs is to be ruled by evil men do not train a child to learn by force or harshness but direct them to it by what amuses their minds so that you may be better able to discover with accuracy The Peculiar bent of the genius of each musical Innovation is full of danger to the state for when modes of Music change the fundamental laws of the state always change with them this quote by Plato suggests that music and art have a powerful influence on society and that changes in artistic expression can lead to changes in the fundamental values and laws of the state Plato believes that music is not only a reflection of society but it also has the power to shape it the heaviest penalty for declining to rule is to be ruled by someone inferior to yourself I am the wisest man alive for I know one thing and that is that I know nothing never discourage anyone who continually makes progress no matter how slow love is a serious mental disease one of the penalties of refusing to participate in politics is that you end up being governed by your inferiors good people do not need laws to tell them to act responsibly while bad people will find a way around the law the measure of a man is what he does with power ignorance the root and stem of every evil if women are expected to do the same work as men we must teach them the same things I'm trying to think don't confuse me with facts those who tell stories rule Society there is truth in wine and children human behavior flows from three main sources desire emotion and knowledge education is teaching our children to desire the right things there are three classes of men lovers of wisdom lovers of honor and lovers of gain in politics we presume that everyone who knows how to get votes knows how to administer a city or a state when we are ill we do not ask for the handsomest physician or the most eloquent one there are two things a person should never be angry at what they can help and what they cannot you should not honor men more than the truth when men speak ill of thee live so as body live so as nobody May believe them the beginning is the most important part of the work the object of education is to teach us to love what is beautiful a house that has a library in it has a soul those who are able to see beyond the Shadows and lies of their culture will never be understood let anyone believed by the masses how can you prove whether at this moment we are sleeping and all our thoughts are a dream or whether we are awake and taking to and talking to the other and talking to another in the waking state bodily exercise when compulsatory does no harm to the body but knowledge which is acquired under compulsion obtains no hold on the mind death is not the worst that can happen to men love is simply the name for the desire in pursuit of the whole no man should bring children into the world who is unwilling to preserve to the end in their nature and education an empty vessel makes the loudest sound so they that have the light so they that have the least wit or the greatest babblers characters simply habit long continued beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder people are like dirt they can either nourish you and help you grow as a person or they can stunt your growth and make you wilt and die I thought to myself I am wiser than this man neither of us probably knows anything that is really good but he thinks he has knowledge when he has not while I having no knowledge do not think I have love is born into every human being it calls back the haves of our original nature together it tries to make one out of two and heal the wound of human nature there isn't every one of us even those who seem to be the most moderate a type of Desire that is terrible wild and Lawless I would teach children music physics and philosophy but most importantly music for the patterns in music and all the Arts are the keys to learning a hero is born a man a hero is born among a hundred a wise man is found among a thousand but an accomplished one might not be found even among a hundred thousand men for this feeling of Wonder shows that you are a philosopher since wonder is the only beginning of philosophy have you ever sensed that yours that our soul is Immortal and never dies poets utter great and wise things which they do not themselves understand if a man can be properly said to love something it must be clear that he feels affection for it as a whole and does not love part of it to the exclusion of the rest any man May easily do harm but not every man can do good to another the first and best Victory is to conquer self true friendship can exist only between equals love is the name for our pursuit of wholeness for our desire to be complete thank you for watching this video showcasing the Brilliance
