Plato Quotes About Judgment

Quotes about: Judgment

• The cause of all the blunders committed by man arises from this excessive self-love. For the lover is blinded by the object loved; so that he passes a wrong judgment on what is just, good and beautiful, thinking that he ought always to honor what belongs to himself in preference to truth. For he who intends to be a great man ought to love neither himself nor his own things, but only what is just, whether it happens to be done by himself, or by another.

  Plato

  Beautiful, Men, Thinking

• More will be accomplished, and better, and with more ease, if every man does what he is best fitted to do, and nothing else.

  Plato

  Men, Doe, Ease

• There is no necessity for the man who means to be an orator to understand what is really just but only what would appear so to the majority of those who will give judgment; and not what is really good or beautiful but whatever will appear so; because persuasion comes from that and not from the truth.
