Plato, Alcibiades I, 113b

ΣΩ. οὐκοῦν ἄρτι διὰ παντὸς ἐγὼ μὲν ἦ ὁ ἐρωτῶν; ΑΛ. ναί. ΣΩ. σὺ δʼ ὁ ἀποκρινόμενος; ΑΛ. πάνυ γε. ΣΩ. τί οὖν; τὰ λεχθέντα πότερος ἡμῶν εἴρηκεν; ΑΛ. φαίνομαι μέν, ὦ Σώκρατες, ἐκ τῶν ὡμολογημένων ἐγώ. ΣΩ. οὐκοῦν ἐλέχθη περὶ δικαίων καὶ ἀδίκων ὅτι Ἀλκιβιάδης ὁ καλὸς ὁ Κλεινίου οὐκ ἐπίσταιτο, οἴοιτο δέ, καὶ μέλλοι εἰς ἐκκλησίαν ἐλθὼν συμβουλεύσειν Ἀθηναίοις περὶ ὧν οὐδὲν οἶδεν; οὐ ταῦτʼ ἦν; Soc. And throughout the argument so far, I was the questioner? Alc. Yes. Soc. And you the answerer? Alc. Quite so. Soc. Well then, which of us has spoken what has been said? Alc. Apparently, Socrates, from what we have admitted, it was I. Soc. And it was said that Alcibiades, the fair son of Cleinias, did not know about just and unjust, but thought he did, and intended to go to the Assembly as adviser to the Athenians on what he knows nothing about; is not that so?
