A man who really fights for justice must lead a private, not a public, life if he is to survive for even a short time.
PlatoThere is no necessity for the man who means to be an orator to understand what is really just but only what would appear so to the majority of those who will give judgment; and not what is really good or beautiful but whatever will appear so; because persuasion comes from that and not from the truth.
Plato
