Sayings of Socrates 36


Knowledge is the food of the soul; and we must take care, my friend, that the Sophist does not deceive us when he praises what he sells, like the dealers, wholesale or retail, who sell the food of the body; for they praise indiscriminately all their goods, without knowing which are really beneficial or hurtful. 

—Plato, Protagoras 313c
