Taureck I 31
Nomos/Callicles/according to Plato, Gorgias: we tame the strongest from the earliest stages onwards, tame them like lions, and tell them that equality is important ... when a man who has the necessary physis arises, he shakes everything off, breaks it, crushes our blinding works ...
Taureck: accordingly the laws of the nomos are based on conventions.
