"The two thinkers in the very center, Aristotle (on the right) and Plato (on the left, pointing up) have been enormously important to Western thinking generally, and in different ways, their different philosophies were incoporated into Christianity. Plato holds his book called The Timaeus. Plato points up because in his philosophy the changing world that we see around us is just a shadow of a higher, truer reality that is eternal and unchanging (and include things like goodness and beauty). For Plato, this otherworldly reality is the ultimate reality, and the seat of all truth, beauty, justice, and wisdom. Aristotle holds his hand down, because in his philosophy, the only reality is the reality that we can see and experience by sight and touch (exactly the reality dismissed by Plato). Aristotle's Ethics (the book that he holds) "emphasized the relationships, justice, friendship, and government of the human world and the need to study it."

Plato and Aristotle
Plato's best friend was Socrates, a Greek philosopher and teacher. Socrates had a significant influence on Plato's thinking and philosophical ideas, and their close relationship is often depicted in Plato's dialogues.
The sculptor has captured Plato's contemplative and intellectual nature through his calm and thoughtful expression. The sculptor also conveys Plato's wisdom and depth through the way he has depicted the lines on his face and posture.
Plato was critical of the democracy in Athens and believed in a philosopher-king ruling class as depicted in his book "The Republic". He believed that a system led by a philosopher-king would result in a just society.
The exact first date of use is unknown, but one of the earliest uses was by Plato in the 400s BC. The connection of phi to Pascal's triangle was made when Leonardo Fibonacci created his Fibonacci sequence.
