If I am brought to court

CalliclesHow firmly you seem to me, Socrates, to believe that not even one of these things could happen to you, as if you lived out of the way and could never be brought into a lawcourt by some person who may well be utterly vile and worthless!

521dSocratesThen I am truly a fool, Callicles, if I do not think that in this city anyone at all might suffer whatever comes his way. This, however, I know well: if I ever come into a lawcourt at risk over one of these things you speak of, the man who brings me to court will be some wicked person—for no decent man would bring to court a person who does no injustice—and it would be nothing strange if I were to die. Do you want me to tell you why I expect this?

CalliclesCertainly.
