Note 6 — INTRODUCTION AND ANALYSIS. (continued 6)
Benjamin Jowett translation
‘These things (I say), when I consider with myself, I hold well with Plato, and do nothing marvel that he would make no laws for them that refused those laws, whereby all men should have and enjoy equal portions of riches and commodities. For the wise men did easily foresee this to be the one and only way to the wealth of a community, if equality of all things should be brought in and established’ (Utopia, English Reprints, p. 67, 68).
