Dialogue

William Blake


Plato: ...How can the teaching of wisdom leave this trail of evil and bloodshed?

Socrates:  The truth is drastic medicine. Those who haven't good digestion it destroys.

Plato:  But before it does, they destroy thousands more.

Socrates:  Does not the sun wither as well as warm? What is already dry is burned, what moist, grows. This is the law of it.
