爱情观
“精神恋爱”的柏拉图式的爱，这种爱认为肉体 的结合是不纯洁的是肮脏的，认为爱情和情欲是 互相对立的两种状态，因此，当一个人确实在爱 着的时候，他完全不可能想到要在肉体上同他所 爱的对象结合。柏拉图认为爱情能够让人得到升 华。他说，对活得高尚的男人来说，指导他行为 的不是血缘，不是荣誉，不是财富，而是爱情。 世上再也没有一种情感像爱情那样深植人心。一 个处在热恋中的人假如作出了不光彩的行为，被 他的父亲、朋友或别的什么人看见，都不会像被 自己的恋人看见那样，使他顿时苍白失色，失去 一切的一切，无力面对自己爱的人和爱自己的人。
柏拉图生于一 个较为富裕的贵族家 庭，他的父亲是阿里 斯通 (Ariston) 、母亲 是克里提俄涅 (Perictione) ，他的家 庭宣称是古雅典国王 的后代。柏拉图起初 打算继承家族传统而 从政，但后来情况发 生变化。 公元前399年，苏格拉底受审并被判死刑，柏拉图对现存的 政体完全失望，于是开始游遍意大利、西西里岛、埃及、 昔兰尼等地以寻求知识。据说他在四十岁时，结束旅行返 回雅典，并在雅典城外西北角创立了自己的学校—柏拉图 学院，这所学院成为西方文明最早的有完整组织的高等学 府之一，学院培养出了许多知识份子，其中最杰出的是亚 里士多德。
The ancient Greek philosopher Diogenes was a bald invective, said: "I will never return. I would appreciate your hair, he has already left you that damned head off."
政治思想
在《理想国》中，柏拉图设计了一幅正义之邦的图 景：国家规模适中，以站在城中高处能将全国尽收 眼底，国人彼此面识为度。柏拉图认为国家起源于 劳动分工，因而他将理想国中的公民分为治国者、 武士、劳动者3个等级，分别代表智慧、勇敢和欲 望3种品性。

About the Author
Gilbert Arthur Highet (June 22, 1906 – January 20, 1978) was a Scottish-American classicist, academic, writer, critic and literary historian. Born in Scotland, he is best known as a mid-20thcentury teacher of the humanities in the United States. Highet devoted most of his energy to teaching, but he also aspired to raise the level of mass culture and achieved broader influence by publishing essays and books.
On another occasion Diogenes is said to have had an interview with Alexander the Great, who opened the conversation with “I am Alexander the Great.” He answered, “And I am Diogenes the Cynic.” Alexander then asked him in what way he could serve him. “You can step out of my sunlight.” Diogenes replied. Alexander is said to have been so struck with the Cynic’s selfpossession that he went away remarking, “If I were not Alexander, I should wish to be Diogenes.”

He was also a mathematician, student of Socrates（苏格拉底）, and founder of the Academy in Athens, the first institution of higher learning in the Western world. Along with his mentor, Socrates, and his student, Aristotle, Plato helped to lay the foundations of Western philosophy and science.
Diogenes
Nothing is known about his life, but his surviving Lives and Opinions of Eminent Philosophers （《名哲言行录》）is a principal source for the history of Greek philosophy. He thought that all should live natually, for what is natural is normal and cannot possibly be evil or shameful. Live without conventions, which are artificial and false: escape complexities and extravagances(奢侈): only so can you live a free life.
On another occasion Diogenes is said to have had an interview with Alexander the Great, who opened the conversation with “I am Alexander the Great.” He answered, “And I am Diogenes the Cynic.” Alexander then asked him in what way he could serve him. “You can step out of my sunlight.” Diogenes replied. Alexander is said to have been so struck with the Cynic’s selfpossession that he went away remarking, “If I were not Alexander, I should wish to be Diogenes.”
人物思想
他认为除了自然的需要必须满足外，其他的任 何东西，包括社会生活和文化生活，都是不自然的、 无足轻重的。他强调禁欲主义的自我满足，鼓励放 弃舒适环境。作为一个苦行主义的身体力行者，他 居住在一只木桶内，过着乞丐一样的生活。每天白 天他都会打着灯笼在街上“寻找诚实的人”。第欧 根尼揭露大多数传统的标准和信条的虚伪性，号召 人们回复简朴自然的理想状态生活。
后来他师承苏格拉底的弟子安提斯泰尼，以身 作则发扬了老师的“犬儒哲学”，试图颠覆一切传 统价值。他从不介意别人称呼他为“狗”，他甚至 高呼“像狗一样活着”。人们把他们的哲学叫做 “犬儒主义”（Cynicism）。他的哲学思想为古希 腊崇尚简朴的生活理想奠定了基础。归到他名下但 现已失传的各种著作中，有对话、戏剧和一部《共 和国》，该书描绘无政府主义者的乌托邦，人们在 其中过着“自然”的生活。
According to a popular story, Diogenes walked through Athens in broad
daylight carrying a lighted lamp, saying that he was looking for an honest man.
