Would you agree, Polemarchus, that the art of shepherding serves the sheep, the art of piloting serves the sailors, and so forth?
That is reasonable.
And would it follow that the art of payment serves the artist after he has performed his art?
This is inferred from the argument.
So would you agree that Thrasymachus owes me five dollars?
What you say is quite true, Socrates.

Justice is, as you know, sometimes spoken of as the virtue of an individual, and sometimes as the virtue of the State.
True.

It is, unless the individual is your mom!
