t,
oh you made me giggle!
No, it is "Our youth now love luxury. They have bad manners, contempt for authority; they show disrespect for their elders and love chatter in place of exercise; they no longer rise when elders enter the room; they contradict their parents, chatter before company; gobble up their food and tyrannize their teachers.”"
Some author in 1959 said Plato said Socrates said it, but if you search Plato, that quote is nowhere to be found.
I even gave citations regarding how Socrates quotes pretty much can't ever be verified and that there is documented difficulty of attributing this quote to Plato much less Socrates.

I was actually going to use it my class in the Fall if I could verify it. Now, I might as well just make up my own damn quote.

I always heard that quote attributed to some 13th-century monk...

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
Right? it is made the fuck up.
I searched google scholar for it and all kinds of people have cited that shit. It's in Bartleby's apparently, but they cite some random book from 1959 who cite Plato. Wouldn't you specify where in Plato you found a quote? You are circulating a rumor, Bartleby's.

You should tell Bartleby's! I am sure they would prefer not to!
