Gorgias (Hackett Classics)

What they neglect to tell you in school is that Plato is straight up funny. Example:
Callicles (to Socrates): By the gods! You simply don't let up on your continual talk of shoemakers and cleaners, cooks and doctors, as if our discussion were about them!
Also if you haven't read this and you have a test on it tomorrow, here's the summary:
Socrates: ...a person who wants to be happy must evidently pursue and practice self-control (507d).
