Once again. Rules, not rulers! When a person rules himself adequately, then his reason is in control over the other aspects of his soul.
Third party arbiters as moderators can decide the merits of any controversy.
"'And doesn't that mean that he is making the best of his
natural gifts, and, by forming a character in which self-control and
justice and understanding are combined, getting something worth
more than physical strength and health and good looks, just as the
mind is worth more than the body?'"
~ Plato, The Republic, 591b
"The just man will not allow the three elements which make up
his inward self to trespass on each other's functions or interfere
with each other, but, by keeping all three in tune will in the truest
sense set his house to rights, attain self-mastery and order, and live
on good terms with himself."
(443d)
“Opinions are valueless as evidence without exploration of the underlying facts and rational showing the path from the facts to the opinion.”
