my man's a dream (слэш)

Plato once wrote a ninety-page essay on Socrates’ doctrine on why one should pursue a good life rather than one’s own pleasure. Kim Dokja didn’t read it, but he heard it was full of circular reasoning that really didn’t make any sort of sense. For someone who was lauded as Socrates’ prized student, the man basically made no attempt to justify his conclusion that acting badly and in pursuit of pleasure would make one’s soul diseased. 
But maybe the man had a point.
