“And is it not likely that self-control causes actions the opposite of those that are due to incontinence?”“Certainly.”“Then is not the cause of the opposite actions presumably a very great blessing?”“Yes, presumably.”“Consequently we may presume, Euthydemus, that self-control is a very great blessing to a man?”“We may presume so, Socrates.”
