Stories from Plato and Other Classic Writers: Hesiod, Homer, Aristophanes, Ovid, Catullus, and Pliny

Paperback (Forgotten Books July 6, 2012)
There is one mind common to all individual men. Every man is an inlet to the same, and to all of the same. He that is once admitted to the right of reason is made a freeman of the whole estate. What Plato has thought, he may think ;what a saint has felt, he may feel ;what at any time has befallen any man, he can understand. When a thought of Plato becomes a thought to me, when a truth that fired the soul of Pindar fires mine, time is no more. Emerson. While it is good to walk among the living, it is good also to live with the wise, great, good dead. It keeps out of life the dreadful feeling of extemporaneousness with its conceit and its despair. It makes us always know that God made other men before He made us.(Typographical errors above are due to OCR software and don't occur in the book.)About the Publisher Forgotten Books is a publisher of historical writings, such as: Philosophy, Classics, Science, Religion, History, Folklore and Mythology.Forgotten Books' Classic Reprint Series utilizes the latest technology to regenerate facsimiles of historically important writings.
