Philosophy – my 100% – Thanks for pointing me to it.
Plato (427-347)
There is reason to act justly even if one can get away with acting unjustly.
There is a single, general, pure idea of goodness that all good things possess.
There is only one model of the just person.
Justice is a harmony of the soul: intellect, emotion, and desire.
The best activity is intellectual stimulation and the most important quality is a strong intellect.
The just person is pleased, not in a state of discord.
The conflict between one’s own good and the good of the community is NOT irresolvable.
I don’t know that I agree 100% with the statements made, but they’re pretty close.I do believe in emotional and spiritual fulfillment, too.
