The allegory of the chariot describes the soul as consisting of a charioteer and two horses, one black and one white. The charioteer represents reason and must control the horses, which represent the rational and irrational parts of the soul. If the charioteer can balance these forces and all parts work together in harmony, it will result in a just soul.
Eros was born from the union of Poros, the personification of resourcefulness, and Penia, the personification of poverty, during the celebration of Aphrodite's birth. As the son of these two beings, Eros is neither fully mortal nor immortal. He is considered a philosopher because, like philosophers, he possesses both wisdom and ignorance. Eros exists in a state between these two extremes, and his origins from Poros and Penia justify this balance of wisdom and ignorance.
El documento resume la venta de la Magna Carta en dos subastas distintas. La primera subasta en 1987 donde Ross Perot la compró por $ 1.5 millones. Más tarde, a los 77 años, Perot decidió subastarla de nuevo para recaudar fondos para la investigación médica y la vendió por $ 21 millones a David Rubenstein. Rubenstein donó parte del dinero a la fundación benéfica de Perot y dejó el documento en los Archivos Nacionales de Washington.
