The 4 Cardinal Virtues (Plato)
Hierarchy of Virtues:
1) Wisdom
2) Temperance – self-discipline. Being orderly & organized with values and in-tune with the higher-self (divine part) at all times. Also, dealing properly with pain & pleasure.
3) Courage
4) Justice
Socrates: Temperance, I replied, is the ordering or controlling of certain pleasures and desires; this is curiously enough implied in the saying of `a man being his own master’ and other traces of the same notion may be found in language.
Glaucon: No doubt.
Socrates: There is something ridiculous in the expression `master of himself’; for the master is also the servant and the servant the master; and in all these modes of speaking the same person is denoted.
Glaucon: Certainly.
Socrates: The meaning is, I believe, that in the human soul there is a better and also a worse principle; and when the better has the worse under control, then a man is said to be master of himself; and this is a term of praise: but when, owing to evil education or association, the better principle, which is also the smaller, is overwhelmed by the greater mass of the worse–in this case he is blamed and is called the slave of self and unprincipled.
Glaucon: Yes, there is reason in that.
