First sentence: In one of the most well-known and influential rhetoric texts in the canon, Phaedrus is on his way out of the city, going for a walk "outside the walls," when he meets Socrates and shares his belief that his walk in the country will be "more refreshing than a stroll in the city squares" (Hamilton 21).
