Quote #10 on Political Struggle Quotes >> Masters and Domination
“If the people yield, well and good; but if they resist him [their ruler]... he beats them, and will keep his dear old fatherland or motherland, as the Cretans say, in subjection to his young retainers whom he has introduced to be their rulers and masters. This is the end of his passions and desires.”
Source: "The Republic," by Plato, 360 BC, translated by Benjamin Jowett. Book 9.
