Plato for sure... I was just re-reading the Republic recently and admiring all over again how very well he picked an issue apart by answering every question with another question until getting to the root of it. If only we all did that!

"I must study politics and war that my sons may have liberty to study mathematics and philosophy. My sons ought to study mathematics and philosophy, geography, natural history, naval architecture, navigation, commerce and agriculture in order to give their children a right to study painting, poetry, music, architecture, statuary, tapestry, and porcelain."\n--  John Adams

Et tu' Brute? You can always start off with that and lead in to whatever you're going to talk about on him. What is your subject besides him. are you going to speak about his rule? His rise to power? The play by Shakespeare?\n\nHere's another lead-in. \n\nGeneral, polotician, god? Only one man in history could be all three. He rose to the power of a king in a republic, without violence to secure his rule. He then transformed that republic into an empire, one of the greatest empire's known to man. [No, this is not Emporer Palpatine, this is Julius Ceasar]*\n\n*Add this last part in only if you know your teacher is lax with things like this.....\n\n(Why does that look like it's describing Star Wars?)
