: Hi there! I'm wondering a couple of things about this Plato quote:
: "...perhaps there is a pattern set up in the heavens for one who desires to see it, and having seen it, to find one in himself."
:
: One is where it comes from. Is there a literary source? I've looked all over the web, and lots of people quote it, while no one says where it specifically comes from other than "Plato."
: The other question is if anyone knows what Plato seemed to mean by this? Is it astrological?
