Ok. Then you should have been clearer. I thought you were the umpteenth faggot that wanted to have that image, so I decided to be kind for a change and post it.

Link me the guide I said, if I need to be clearer than that for you to understand, you got problems and shouldn’t be reading at all since you’ll mosdef misunderstand every word of all the books.
>Meditations by Marcus Aurelius
Brilliant, brilliant work if it hasn't been mentioned. Most influential piece of literature I've ever read, and it's a not too difficult of a first read in the translated versions.

I owe successes in my professional life, my romantic life, and my personal life my job to the guidance I took away from that book.

it's not finished and it looks like it may never be, but have at it
I'm currently reading Plato's Republic. This is my first foray into greek classics. I thought that the Greeks were polytheistic but in this book, Socrates continually alludes to 'God'. What gives?

All human societies were monotheist before they became degenerates. Greeks are no exception.
>>8021186
Post a sample line.
>>8021186
Usually, every Greek city (or each citizen) had its own patron god, e.g. so when Socrates, in the Apology, refers to Apollo, he just says 'the god'. I don't remember in what context does he say it the Republic.
