Socrates further goes on to say the majority acts haphazardly; therefore, they cannot do great good or great harm (Plato 45). Crito says that "the opinion of the many" would judge us wrong if we didn't help you (and anyone in your position would agree that you ought to escape).

Socrates introduces a distinction between true opinion and false opinion. And the path to the latter is through argument and reaso ....

It is legitimate to ask where Mill ....


A Critical Essay On Sir Thomas
1947 Words - 8 Pages

.... have to look very closely to separate the thinkers thought from the literary tricks of the trade. More's intentions in Utopia, must remain mysterious. A little more difficult to accept is the general implication of the review that the mysteriousness of the author's intent in Utopia is somehow a point in his favor, that the obscurity of his meaning enhances the merit of his work.
