I studied Plato in philosophy last year and I can safely conclude he's an utter pillock.
He said that this world isn't the real world and that the "real world" is called the World of the Forms, where everything has a perfect "template". So, in this world of the forms, there will be a perfect human, a perfect brick, a perfect bus and so on. The world we think is real (i.e. the one we're on now) is just a mere shadow of the perfection he suggested.
Fair to say I don't like him
