"SOCRATES: 'Well, the name 'Hermes' seems to have something to do with speech: he is the interpreter (hermêneus), a messenger, a thief and a deceiver in words, a wheeler-dealer--and all these activities involve the power of speech.'"
Well, I guess that that is where we get 'Hermeneutics.' Pretty awesome stuff, Socrates.
