Socrates Quotes
...[I]f At The Time Of Its Release The Soul Is Tainted And Impure, Because It Has Always Associated With The Body And Cared For It And Loved It, And Has Been So Beguiled By The Body And Its Passions And Pleasures That Nothing Seems Real To It But Those Physical Things Which Can Be Touched And Seen And Eaten And Drunk And Used For Sexual Enjoyment; And If It Is Accustomed To Hate And Fear And Avoid What Is Invisible And Hidden From Our Eyes, But Intelligible And Comprehensible By Philosophy - If The Soul Is In This State, Do You Think That It Will Escape Independent And Uncontaminated?
