Plato's view is that quality has to do with every interaction with the customer, from the efficiency of the ordering process, to the level of technical support provided when a problem arises.

Since Plato's age enlightenment has waxed and waned, it is only since the digital age that our preoccupation with knowledge, data and information has exploded.
Plato's notion has puzzled critics who are obsessed with the Semitic theory of a wholly transcendent God creating out of nothing an accidental universe.

Plato's writings sought to establish a realm of absolutes to "allay the moral confusion of his day, but they have come to represent the philosophical foundations of Western culture.
Plato's Theory of Forms led to the aesthetic principle that 'Art should Imitate Nature' which had a profound influence on western art in general and on the history of garden design in particular.
Plato's Academy was a place where serious and thoughtful people came to study his philosophy in an atmosphere conducive to their learning, and then returned to their professions to implement what they were taught by the great philosopher.

In Plato's writings he emphasised that the future astronomers would have to reach beyond the traditional star gazing and use mathmatics and geometry to discover the true nature of the science astronomy.
Plato's concentration on perfect underlying forms did in fact lead to a major contribution to astronomy, despite his own lack of interest in observation.
For Plato's inquiry stops with the world of ideas, as it has given him the metaphysical explanatory power he needed to structure his theory of knowledge and morality.
