Plato

Quotes

• “Wonder is the feeling of a philosopher, and philosophy begins in wonder.”

• “I do see one large and grievous kind of ignorance, separate from the rest, and as weighty as all the other parts put together. Thinking that one knows a thing when one does not know it. Through this, I believe, all the mistakes of the mind are caused in all of us.”

• “No one should be discouraged, Theaetetus, who can make constant progress, even though it be slow.”

• “It would be better for me … that multitudes of men should disagree with me rather than that I, being one, should be out of harmony with myself.”

• “The beginning in every task is the chief thing.”
