Quotes by Robin Waterfield (?)

“Reading Plato should be easy; understanding Plato can be difficult.”
― Robin Waterfield, Republic

tags: plato, reading, understanding

“If I am in love, many things about the world, not just the immediate object of my love, seem lovable. To say 'I love X' is somehow really to say 'X inspires love in me', and that love then attaches itself to objects other than X as well. The expansiveness of love is a natural means of ascent between levels.”
― Robin Waterfield

“I will cover minor and major human settlements equally, because most of those which were important in the past have diminished in significance by now, and those which were great in my own time were small in times past. I will mention both equally because I know that human happiness never remains long in the same place.”
― Robin A.H. Waterfield, The Histories
