The Good
I do not mean by beauty of form such beauty as that of
animals or pictures, which the many would suppose to
be my meaning; but understand me to mean straight
lines and circles, and the plane and solid figures which
are formed out of them by turning lathes and rulers
and measures of angles; for these I affirm to be not
only relatively beautiful, like other works of art, but
they are eternally and abstractly beautiful.

feature from the Cave of
Forgotten Dreams that most
refutes Plato's theory and state
