Greetings romding welcome to the Oracle forum and thank for your post, as I sheepishly note that your correspondence is dated 9th of September and I am responding on the 29th, ah well I regret the delay, but at least we are still in the same month.
Well yes Plato fine chap, fine mind, the numbers most certainly have it as a fundamental pillar of 973-eht-namuh-973, but hopefully so does compassion toward a better world through collective mind. And aside from Plato's scientific utterances he also demonstrated a sound emotional compass as well as great artistic leanings, for indeed it is art that softens the harshness of the modern world (and that is one of old Redbeck's observations with plenty of Irish in the genes but little Greek).
Diogenes and Plato painting by Mattia Preti (Maltese)1649
'Be kind, for everyone you meet is fighting a harder battle.' - Plato
'Every heart sings a song, incomplete, until another heart whispers back. Those who wish to sing always find a song. At the touch of a lover, everyone becomes a poet.' - Plato
'Do not train a child to learn by force or harshness; but direct them to it by what amuses their minds, so that you may be better able to discover with accuracy the peculiar bent of the genius of each.' - Plato
'Never discourage anyone...who continually makes progress, no matter how slow.' - Plato
Good call romding mathematically speaking, there are apparently 756 main quotes from Plato, which you will note adds up to 18 and in turn in our sytem resolves down to 9, our signifcant power number 9, relating to both light and darkness, as in the most powerful forces of good and evil, if you will. Plato of course was a champion of the greater good.
