Alcibiades I by Plato
page 35 of 96 (36%)
SOCRATES: Yes.

ALCIBIADES: How was that?

SOCRATES: Let me explain. Suppose I were to ask you which is the greater
number, two or one; you would reply 'two'?

ALCIBIADES: I should.

SOCRATES: And by how much greater?

ALCIBIADES: By one.

SOCRATES: Which of us now says that two is more than one?

ALCIBIADES: I do.

SOCRATES: Did not I ask, and you answer the question?

ALCIBIADES: Yes.

SOCRATES: Then who is speaking? I who put the question, or you who answer
me?

ALCIBIADES: I am.

SOCRATES: Or suppose that I ask and you tell me the letters which make up
the name Socrates, which of us is the speaker?

ALCIBIADES: I am.
