Plato - Timaeus
Of those who had emerged as the men were all cowards, and those who spent their lives unjustly - that's the likely explanation - turned in its second generation in women. And it is precisely why the gods were at the same time, the desire for the copulation result: they created two animated beings, one in us, the other in the women , where they brought forth the one and the others follow. The passage for the liquid, where this the drink that is passed through the lungs and the kidneys to the bladder absorbs into itself and, under the pressure of the breath exhales, pierced it and joined him with the solid mass of Marks which runs down from the head through the neck and spine, and we have just described in our study as seeds. Because this market is now animated, and because it found a way out, called it where it could flow out, life-giving desire for the outpouring out and eventually caused by the desire for procreation. Therefore, because even the private parts of men difficult to control and high-handed as a living being that belongs to no reason, and they try their aufstachelnden desires to gain the upper hand over everything. In the women other hand, feels the same reasons, what is called uterus or womb and what as a living being is in them to give birth to the desire for children. If it can bear, despite the long time no fruit ripening, it can difficult and unwilling to endure, it is wrong then round the whole body, clogging the channels of the air and prevents the breathing, because it brings the body to the extreme hardships and has manifold other diseases lead to the mutual desire and love, the two and bring together as if from trees, the fruit pick , as in a furrow to sow into small organisms in the uterus, which are so tiny that you do not see them, and still have no form, which separate They then feed off it and inside of the body until they are big, and then they bring them to the finish light, and thus the emergence of living beings.
In this way, the women and the whole female gender emerged, and the strain of birds was, however, by replacing the hair springs were, by the transformation of those men out, not bad, but mild and comfortable with supernatural things look, but my in its simplicity, this showed them the eye of it, which provides most reliance . The animals, however, who live on the earth, arise from those men who have become in any way with the philosophy and also hire any reflections on the nature of what is happening in the sky, and, indeed, because the circuits in their no longer apply head , But do know those parts of their soul allegiance, which are located in her chest. Because they deal only with these were their front limbs and their heads as a result of kinship with the earth attracted by this and tend down to her, and their skulls were long and took on many forms, depending on the rounds due to each one were the compressed inaction ; from this cause was their kind to a four-footed or even vielfüßigen , the more stupid the God among them more support backed, so they were dragged down to earth even more. The most stupid but among them, their whole body stretched completely down to earth who needed no feet at all and more have been created that they are without feet on the ground crawling were moving. The fourth class, finally, who lives in the water, emerged from the All foolish most and incorrigible testing , the gods who carried out these transformations, they were not even the pure breathing value because their impure soul with any kind of errors did, so they pushed it out of pure light and breath in the air down to the inhalation of the muddy Water at depth. This was how the people of the fish and shellfish, and whatever else lives in the water, and received, according to its abysmal unlearned nature also resides in the deepest abyss. And so for now, as then turns all living creatures, one in the other, and change their shape depending on how they lose their rationality or irrationality or win.
And now we may safely assert, finally, to have achieved the goal of our speech about the universe. For as this world has now mortal and immortal being added to and is full of them, as a visible living being, which itself comprises the visible , a perceptible God, become the image of the possible, and this is the biggest and best, the most beautiful and most perfect sky, as there can be no other.
