[107d]

Socrates
Well, on what sort of affairs of their own do you mean that they will be deliberating?

Alcibiades
On war, Socrates, or on peace, or on any other of the state's affairs.

Socrates
Do you mean that they will be deliberating with whom they ought to make peace, and on whom they ought to make war, and in what manner?

Alcibiades
Yes.

Socrates
And on whom it is better to do so, ought they not?

Alcibiades
Yes.
