| [Socrates:]  "It is obvious that the same thing will never do or suffer opposites
| in the same respect* in relation to the same thing and at the same time.  So that
| if ever we find these contradictions in the functions of the mind we shall know
| that it was not the same thing functioning but a plurality."

| [Translator's Note.  [kata tauton] = in the same part of or aspect of itself;
| [pros tautaon] = in relation to the same (other) thing.  Cf. 'Sophist' 230 B,
| [ama peri ton auton pros ta auta kata tauta enantias].]
