Plato's Philosophy of the Human Person: According to Plato, man is body and soul. However, body and soul are separate entities whereby the soul is man's most valuable possession.

only unworthy of Plato, and in several passages plagiarized from him, but flagrantly at variance with historical fact. It will be seen also that I do not agree with Mr. Grote’s views about the Sophists; nor with the low estimate which he has formed of Plato’s Laws; nor with his opinion respecting Plato’s doctrine of the rotation of the earth.
