It is from Plato's "The Trial and Death of Socrates." You recall that Socrates was on trial because he publicly taught that men should make an unflagging search after truth. He was keenly aware of the necessity of sifting and examining plausible arguments. And for this he was sentenced to die by drinking a cup of poison. His last words were to his friend Crito: " I owe a cock to Asclepius; do not forget to pay it." Thus died a great seeker of truth who lived some 400 years before Christ. — Art & Design : Marvin Rubin
