What point does Pericles make about the laws of
democracy?
When it is a question of settling private disputes,
everyone is equal before the law; when it is a question of
putting one person before another in positions of public
responsibility, what counts is not membership of a
particular class, but the actual ability which the man
possesses. No one, so long as he has it in him to be of
service to the state, is kept in political obscurity because
of poverty.
- “Funeral Oration,"
Pericles
O Laws help men gain more possessions and
become richer.
O Laws only help the people who have government
positions.
O Laws are unequal to citizens because they put one
person before another.
O Laws are equal for people who have money and for
people who live in poverty.
