A science historian has 'cracked' Plato's code, that indicates his knowledge regarding the 'music of the spheres'... the blending of science and spirituality. (Beautiful Knowledge)

Plato quoted:

“Be kind, for everyone you meet is fighting a hard battle.”

“If women are expected to do the same work as men, we must teach them the same things.”

“Ignorance: the root of all evil.”

“Only the dead have seen the end of war.”

“The price good men pay for indifference to public affairs is to be ruled by evil men.”

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

This gem of a phrase is richly demonstrated by many of the comments on the website that has these sayings of Plato. This phrase also brings to mind people always texting or yakking with a cell phone surgically attached to the side of their heads. This comment of mine does not refer to the utility and usage of these modern conveniences.

Wow... Couldn't be more appropriate in those days...

I was very lucky in having my adopted father teach me all the things he would have taught to a son... and a mother to teach me, what she could, the ways of a daughter...

For this, I am thankful.
