Socrates
Soc. And they are happy because of the acquisition of good things?
Alcibiades
Alc. Certainly.
Socrates
Soc. And they acquire these by doing well and nobly? 15
Alcibiades
Alc. Yes.
Socrates
Soc. So doing well is good?
Alcibiades
Alc. Of course.
Socrates
Soc. And welfare is noble?
Alcibiades
Alc. Yes. 20
Socrates
Soc. Hence we have seen again that noble and good are the same thing.
Alcibiades
Alc. Apparently.
Socrates
Soc. Then whatever we find to be noble we shall find also to be good, by this argument at least.
Alcibiades
Alc. We must.
Socrates
Soc. Well then, are good things expedient or not? 25
Alcibiades
Alc. Expedient.
Socrates
Soc. And do you remember what our admissions were about just things?
Alcibiades
Alc. I think we said that those who do just things must do noble things.
Socrates
Soc. And that those who do noble things must do good things?
Alcibiades
Alc. Yes. 30
Socrates
Soc. And that good things are expedient?
Alcibiades
Alc. Yes.
