If you think that question can be answered you probably didn't fully understand any of the Greek philosophy you read.

>finally pick it, expecting something hard to process and understand
>tfw it's a extremely easy read (although dense)
>tfw anyone can pick the Nicomachean Ethics and have a good insight about how much thought it is required to think about ethics


Everyone should read it at least once.
>>
>>9323780
awful question but probably Phaedo
>>
>>9323780
The Republic probably. In depth discussion of the Forms, allegory of the cave, plus all the other political/ethical/religious stuff.
>>
On Nature by Heraclitus
>>
>>9324278
this, it is the gateway to philosophy.
>>
>>9323780
i'd say nicomachean ethics but a good case could be made for plato
>>
>>9324828
Which dialogue?
>>
>>9323780
this
>>
On the ethical side of things, definitely OP and the Republic. But Aristotle's Metaphysics on the whole.
>>
Theaetetus
>>
>>9323780
Timaeus because I wanna be edgy.
>>
>>9323780
>>9327370
This.
>>
>>9327370
Unironically this.
>>
Who the fuck can anyone argue against Republic? It's the only option.
Also kids that want to pick something from Aristotle and say Nicomachean Ethics have no idea how he was an influence later, especially in the middle ages roflcopter
>>
>>9327332
underrated

Euthyphro, because Socrates rekting bitches has engrained itself into our culture.
