"The dialogues of Plato are so largely stamped with the characters of sovereign good, that they are calculated to benefit in a certain degree even those who are incapable of penetrating their profundity. They can tame a savage sophist, like Thrasymachus in the Republic; humble the arrogance even of those who are ignorant of their ignorance; Make those to become proficients in political, who will never arrive at theoretic virtue; and, in short, like the illuminations of deity, wherever there is any portion of aptitude in there recipients, they purify, irradiate, and exalt." - Thomas Taylor the Platonist ________________________________________ #onephilosophia #philsophia #thomastaylortheplatonist #platosrepublic #platonicphilosophy #platonism #platonicphilosopher #platonist #neoplatonism #neoplatonic #neoplatonist #plato (at Vedic Shastras) https://www.instagram.com/p/CFznP61FhtI/?igshid=1kpnjs7qeaahe
