Hi DMB,

I want to put these quotes in the dialectic of DQ/SQ.

the ³virtuous hero must henceforth be a dialectician²

There is a logic for evolution DQ/SQ in that sentence.  The indefinable
emotions support the definable intellect.  There is so much juice in the
"Aha!" experience that I want to use the term evolutionary to describe it.
I am using evolution in discussing a reality beyond logical physics,
evolutionary metaphysics.

"Truth" is the highest good.  I accept a definable logic, intellect, as a
more complex level than indefinable perception, emotion.  I see perception
as indefinable, intellect is logical.  In a concept of evolution emotions
precede intellect: indefinable perception evolving to a higher definable
intellectual conception DQ/SQ.

IMHO The dialectic of knowledge embraces the evolutionary pattern.  Logical
argument creates a higher level of certainty than perceivable only emotions.
DQ indefinable emotions, SQ intellectual definable logic.
