The opening
Soc. Really I am greatly indebted to you, Theodorus, for my acquaintance with Theaetetus and with the Stranger, too.
Theo. Presently, Socrates, you will be three times as much indebted, when they have worked out the statesman and the philosopher for you.
Soc. Indeed! My dear Theodorus, can I believe my ears? Were those really the words of the great calculator and geometrician?
Theo. Why, what do you mean, Socrates?
The whole book is in the Sphinx app.
