[166ε]
εἴτε Σωκράτης ὁ ἐλεγχόμενος: ἀλλ᾽ αὐτῷ προσέχων τὸν νοῦν τῷ λόγῳ σκόπει ὅπῃ ποτὲ ἐκβήσεται ἐλεγχόμενος.ἀλλά, ἔφη, ποιήσω οὕτω: δοκεῖς γάρ μοι μέτρια λέγειν.λέγε τοίνυν, ἦν δ᾽ ἐγώ, περὶ τῆς σωφροσύνης πῶς λέγεις;λέγω τοίνυν, ἦ δ᾽ ὅς, ὅτι μόνη τῶν ἄλλων ἐπιστημῶν αὐτή τε αὑτῆς ἐστιν καὶ τῶν ἄλλων ἐπιστημῶν ἐπιστήμη.οὐκοῦν, ἦν δ᾽ ἐγώ, καὶ ἀνεπιστημοσύνης ἐπιστήμη ἂν εἴη, εἴπερ καὶ ἐπιστήμης;πάνυ γε, ἔφη.
