Strona 711 z 1391

This latter question need not be further discussed at present;

but when Thrasymachus says that the life of the unjust is more

advantageous than that of the just, his new statement appears to

me to be of a far more serious character. Which of us has spoken

truly? And which sort of life, Glaucon, do you prefer?

I for my part deem the life of the just to be the more

advantageous, he answered.

Did you hear all the advantages of the unjust which Thrasymachus

was rehearsing?

Yes, I heard him, he replied, but he has not convinced me.

Then shall we try to find some way of convincing him, if we can,

that he is saying what is not true?

Most certainly, he replied.
