Children nowadays are tyrants. They contradict their parents, gobble their food and tyrannise their teachers. -- Socrates from brainyquote.com Plato about youth and the excess of freedom Several people have asked me the exact reference of a quotation often ascribed to Socrates and circulating in educational institutions under a more or less loose form, on the evils of children no longer respecting their parents and teachers and of the excess of freedom. The quotation is not from Socrates, who wrote nothing, but is put in the mouth of Socrates by Plato in a dialogue called The Republic. From http://plato-dialogues.org/faq/faq003.htm - different quote, but critical of children in society |
