Thanks for the info - I actually know that quote can't be found in any of Plato's writings, that's why I couldn't find a translation myself in the records of his books. I think one of the main reasons people believe it is by Plato is because of all of the sources such as "Wordsworth Dictionary of Musical Quotations" that attribute this quote to Plato even though none of them cite which book the quotation is from. And also like you said, Plato’s Republic shows an obvious love for music, however censored he believed it should be. I have read a few articles on the subject, some believe this quote is from him but was not published in a public book and might have been in his personal writings, while others believe it was not from him at all but by another philosopher of that time such as Aristotle. Any how I just thought it was a beautiful quote from that time period and would look even more beautiful in Attic, I guess I shouldn't have added the "Plato" to the end though since there seems to be confusion on who it is actually from. Thanks very much anyways though for your time and information :)
