SOCRATES: If my soul, Callicles, were made of gold, should I not rejoice to discover one of those stones with which they test gold, and the very best possible one to which I might bring my soul; and if the stone and I agreed in approving of her training, then I should know that I was in a satisfactory state, and that no other test was needed by me.
So. Ausaz urrezko arima edukiko banu, Kalikles, ez al duzu uste pozik aurkituko nukeela urrea probatzeko harri horietako bat, onena, nire arima hurreratzeko, eta, nire arima ondo zainduta dagoela aitortuko balit, argi eta garbi jakiteko ondo nagoela eta ez dudala beste probarik behar?
