“The only problem with seeing too much is that it makes you insane.”
― “Phaedrus”, Section 245 A, by Plato, Ancient Greek Philosopher, written 360 B.C.E.
In this period of economic, social, and political unrest, there are many Weasels…will you be a smart Mouse?
BTW: The Ancient Roman Poet Phaedrus was born a servant, gained his freedom, and worked for Caesar Agustus, where he wrote and compiled poems and fables. Read the known collection here. Plato’s work “Phaedrus” – a conversation between the philosopher Socrates and his student Phaedrus about love, reality, and metaphysics as they take a walk – can be found here.
