Jowett: Phaedo (103a-105b) — Objeção e resposta
One of the company, though I do not exactly remember which of them, on hearing this, said : By Heaven, is not this the direct contrary of what was admitted before — that out of the greater came the less and out of the less the greater, and that opposites are simply generated from opposites…

Jowett: Phaedo (99d-102b) — O método
Socrates proceeded : I thought that as I had failed in the contemplation of true existence, I ought to be careful that I did not lose the eye of my soul ; as people may injure their bodily eye by observing and gazing on the sun during an eclipse, unless they take the precaution of…

Jowett: Phaedo (97b-99d) — A promessa de Anaxágoras
Then I heard someone who had a book of Anaxagoras, as he said, out of which he read that mind was the disposer and cause of all, and I was quite delighted at the notion of this, which appeared admirable, and I said to myself : If mind is the disposer, mind will dispose all…

Jowett: Phaedo (95e-97b) — Problema da geração e da corrupção
Socrates paused awhile, and seemed to be absorbed in reflection. At length he said : This is a very serious inquiry which you are raising, Cebes, involving the whole question of generation and corruption, about which I will, if you like, give you my own experience ; and you can apply this, if you think…

Jowett: Phaedo (95a-95e) — Discussão da concepção de Cebes
Thus much, said Socrates, of Harmonia, your Theban goddess, Cebes, who has not been ungracious to us, I think ; but what shall I say to the Theban Cadmus, and how shall I propitiate him ? I think that you will discover a way of propitiating him, said Cebes ; I am sure that you…

Jowett: Phaedo (92a-95a) — Exame da concepção de Simias
But, rejoined Socrates, you will have to think differently, my Theban friend, if you still maintain that harmony is a compound, and that the soul is a harmony which is made out of strings set in the frame of the body ; for you will surely never allow yourself to say that a harmony is…

Jowett: Phaedo (89c-92a) — A misologia
But first let us take care that we avoid a danger. And what is that ? I said. The danger of becoming misologists, he replied, which is one of the very worst things that can happen to us. For as there are misanthropists or haters of men, there are also misologists or haters of ideas,…

Jowett: Phaedo (86e-88b) — A concepção de Cebes
Cebes said : I will tell you. My feeling is that the argument is still in the same position, and open to the same objections which were urged before ; for I am ready to admit that the existence of the soul before entering into the bodily form has been very ingeniously, and, as I…

Jowett: Phaedo (85b-86e) — A concepção de Símias
Well, Socrates, said Simmias, then I will tell you my difficulty, and Cebes will tell you his. For I dare say that you, Socrates, feel, as I do, how very hard or almost impossible is the attainment of any certainty about questions such as these in the present life. And yet I should deem him…

Jowett: Phaedo (82c-84b) — A obra do filósofo
No, indeed, he replied ; and therefore they who have a care of their souls, and do not merely live in the fashions of the body, say farewell to all this ; they will not walk in the ways of the blind : and when philosophy offers them purification and release from evil, they feel…
