More quotes by Plato

Every heart sings a song, incomplete, until another heart whispers back. Those who wish to sing always find a song. At the touch of a lover, everyone becomes a poet.

Plato

The beginning is the most important part of the work.

Plato

What a poor appearance the tales of poets make when stripped of the colours which music puts upon them, and recited in simple prose.

Plato

Wise men talk because they have something to say; fools, because they have to say something.

Plato

Music gives soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination and charm and gaiety to life.

Plato

Astronomy compels the soul to look upwards and leads us from this world to another.
