Note 111 — Chapter III · SOME FUNDAMENTAL CHARACTERISTICS
Reading edition
“If God has this perfect authority and perfect knowledge, His authority cannot rule us, nor His knowledge know us, or any human thing; just as our authority does not extend to the gods, nor our knowledge know anything which is divine; so by parity of reason they, being gods, are not our masters, neither do they know the things of men” (Parmenides, 134, Jowett’s Plato, vol. iv.).
