Isaac Newton
“Plato is my friend, Aristotle is my friend, but my greatest friend is truth.”
Isaac Newton

Socrates
“My plainness of speech makes them hate me, and what is their hatred but a
proof that I am speaking the truth.”
Socrates, Apology

Plato
“Similarly with regard to truth, won't we say that a soul is maimed if it hates a voluntary falsehood, cannot endure to have one in itself, and is greatly angered when it exists in others, but is nonetheless content to accept an involuntary falsehood, isn't angry when it is caught being ignorant, and bears its lack of learning easily, wallowing in it like a pig?”
Plato

Plato
“for the best possible state of your soul, as I say to you: Wealth does not bring about excellence, but excellence makes wealth and everything else good for men, both individually and collectively.”
Plato, The Trial and Death of Socrates

Plato
“The truth is that we isolate a particular kind of love and appropriate it for the name of love, which really belongs to a wider whole.”
Plato, The Symposium
