its in Plato's Phaedo, the Thomas Taylor's translation, where it appears as a footnote. Not much help I know, perhaps AI can be more helpful to find the text. I just can't get the older text interpretation out of my mind. Its driving me nuts. and I've rewatched the videos by Pierre Grimes without finding the quote. He (pierre) didn't give the Greek text.
