Aristotle and Plato! You Can Say Which Symbolic Golden California Bear, Is Which.

[People who can’t stand the eternal lofty idealism of Plato welcome the down-to-earth facts of Aristotle.] Plato is the essential Buddha-seeker who appears again and again in each generation, moving onward and upward toward the "one." Aristotle is the eternal motorcycle mechanic who prefers the "many." I myself am pretty much Aristotelian in this sense, preferring to find the Buddha in the quality of the facts around me, but Phædrus was clearly a Platonist by temperament and when the classes shifted to Plato he was greatly relieved.“ (Cont. Next)
