Measure and symmetry are beauty and virtue the world over  (Socrates Quotes) When desire, having rejected reason and overpowered judgment which leads to right, is set in the direction of the pleasure which beauty can inspire  (Socrates Quotes) Improve yourself by other men’s writings thus attaining effortlessly what they acquired through great difficulty  (Socrates Quotes) The partisan when he is engaged in a dispute, cares nothing about the rights of the question, but is anxious only to convince his hearers of his own assertions  (Socrates Quotes) If a man is proud of his wealth, he should not be praised until it is known how he employs it  (Socrates Quotes) If all misfortunes were laid in one common heap whence everyone must take an equal portion, most people would be contented to take their own and depart  (Socrates Quotes) One who is injured ought not to return the injury, for on no account can it be right to do an injustice  (Socrates Quotes) Where there is reverence there is fear, but there is not reverence everywhere that there is fear, because fear presumably has a wider extension than reverence  (Socrates Quotes) Worthless people live only to eat and drink; people of worth eat and drink only to live  (Socrates Quotes) Get not your friends by bare compliments but by giving them sensible tokens of your love  (Socrates Quotes) Think not those faithful who praise all thy words and actions, but those who kindly reprove thy faults  (Socrates Quotes) He said that there was one only good, namely, knowledge; and one only evil, namely, ignorance  (Socrates Quotes) Get married, in any case.
