1. Plato defined the forms as the ideal version of things that exist in our world.
2. The three groups that Plato designated to be in his ideal society were the military, the producers, and the rulers.
3. In some of his writings, Plato believed that women were just as capable of ruling as men were, but in other works of his, he compared them to women.  He also believed that the woman's womb was a live animal that could move around the woman's body and cause illness.
4. Plato's noble lie is that we are all born with a certain amount of gold, silver, brass, and iron in our souls.  Based on this percentage of metals in one's soul, their place in this three rank society would be able to find their place.
