Summary

If we find that justice in the individual is something different [than in the State] we must go back to the State and test our new result. Perhaps if we brought the two cases into contact like flint and steel, we might strike out between them the spark of justice, and in its light confirm the conception in our own minds.

– Plato, The Republic
