Anynone who read Plato? No? Well I highly recommend him. (even if you don´t agree with him.) If he had lived now he would have gained the Nobel Prize, for sure. He was boring? Well try Symposion. It´s all about Plato, Socrates, Agathon and the rest of the gay gang having a party. Joking, drinking and discussing love! (no Love I mean. Who as we all know is a Godess.) No? I´m being delirious? Read it yourself! (well I have to admit they didn´t drink that much. Most of them suffered from hangovers from the party the night before.)
Anyway. Socrates tells the amazing story how he was taught philosophy (as a young man) by a woman! Diotima! (nobody knows anything about her. Or if she even existed.)
Since nobody know what she looked like she might have looked like this!
