Lesser Hippias

HIPPIAS: Which he certainly has. 

SOCRATES: Then, Hippias, he who voluntarily does wrong and disgraceful

SOCRATES: Nor can I agree with myself, Hippias; and yet that seems to be
the conclusion which, as far as we can see at present, must follow from our
argument.  As I was saying before, I am all abroad, and being in perplexity
am always changing my opinion.  Now, that I or any ordinary man should
wander in perplexity is not surprising; but if you wise men also wander,
and we cannot come to you and rest from our wandering, the matter begins to
be serious both to us and to you.
