THEAETETUS: I should say, Stranger, that man is a tame animal, and I admit that he is hunted.

THEAETETUS: How shall we make the division?
STRANGER: Let us define piracy, man-stealing, tyranny, the whole military art, by one name, as hunting with violence.

STRANGER: But the art of the lawyer, of the popular orator, and the art of conversation may be called in one word the art of persuasion.
