		The rich legacy of this project consists of over 1,000 cassette tapes filled with confessions and people’s innermost thoughts and feelings, which were recorded over the telephone during this fifteen year period.
		Copies of Apology Magazine are still available as well as a CD which includes recordings of the most interesting calls to the line over the course of its history.
		First of all, Sugar Pictures, a documentary film company co-founded by Thom Powers, an Apology caller and friend of Allan's, is planning to produce a documentary film on Allan Bridge and the Apology Project.

		But apologies, he adds, can be “tricky: Done correctly, they can effectively position the company as part of the solution rather than a cause of the problem; done poorly or in the wrong situation, they might only ensure that the company will face huge legal judgments.
		Apologies that aren’t considered sincere are “referred to as ‘cheap talk,’” says Schweitzer, adding that in the business world, the way in which apologies are made has a lot to do with how they are perceived.
		They hypothesize that the apology in their study may not have been sufficiently substantial or sincere, because, for example, it was not accompanied by an offer of penance.

	The Art of the Apology - HBS Working Knowledge
		Apologies involve three elements: Acknowledgment of a fault or an offense, regret for it, and responsibility for the offense.
		A good apology should make the person wronged think, "Yes, she understands." Often what the offended person wants is accountability and vigilance; he wants to know that it won't happen again.
		For someone who equates an apology with loss of stature, for instance, the person-to-person apology can appear to be a magnanimous act that does not diminish her.

	Ziniewicz on Plato's Apology
		It should be noted that the Apology is not a "dialogue" in the strict sense, in the manner of Plato's other dialogues.
		In the Apology, Socrates asserts (dialectically) that death is either an eternal dreamless sleep (and therefore a welcome rest) or it is an exit to an afterlife in pleasant communion with the gods.
		In the Apology, Socrates claims to be ignorant of "life after death." But he does "know" that it is pernicious to corrupt one's soul by committing injustice.

	Plato's Apology
		Plato's Apology is in the widest sense an example of forensic oratory, in which Socrates defends himself in court against his accusers.
		Finally, it should be noted that the Apology is a set of speeches recreated by a second party after the fact (like the speeches in Thucydides), and therefore should not be considered a word-for-word reproduction of what Socrates said on that occasion.
		Plato's Apology presents to us a speech delivered by Socrates in his own defense at his trial in the first person throughout.

		The Apology of Socrates is one of the earliest existing documents of Greek philosophy - everything earlier was lost and is known only through quoted fragments in later works, like those of Plato himself.
		Rightly so, the Apology is still, all by itself, an excellent introduction to Western philosophy and traditionally the first complete text read in the formal study of Classical Greek.
		Plato, who’s presence at the trial is mentioned twice in the Apology, provides us with the only witnessed recording of the trial proceedings and the historic Apology of Socrates.

	Plato's Apology
		The Apology is also an important example of a fairly extensive literature designed to defend Socrates against his detractors and to present what his defenders believed to be the real Socrates.
		The use of the word "Apology" in this context is based on the meaning of the Greek word apologia which does not mean `a statement of regret requesting pardon', but 'a formal statement of justification or defense'.
		In addition to the apologies of Plato and Xenophon, Socrates appears in almost all of Plato's Dialogues and in Xenophon's Recollections [of Socrates] and in two works by these authors which both have the title Symposium 'Drinking Party'.

		Yesterday's apology was the blockbuster sequel to Gibson's first apology, which came Saturday before the details of his tirade became famous.
		Apology I was judged to be "insufficient" and "unremorseful" by Abraham H. Foxman, national director of the Anti-Defamation League.
		Gibson's latest apology did not change the views of Hollywood superagent Ari Emanuel, who said through a spokesman that he stood by his earlier statement that folks in Hollywood ought to be "shunning Mel Gibson and refusing to work with him, even if it means a sacrifice to their bottom line."

	Apology Comments 1
		The event recorded in the Apology is very likely the event which is the seed from which the Platonic corpus was to grow and so the seed from which Western Philosophy was to grow as well.
		Indeed, the Apology is not really a Platonic dialogue at all (in the usual sense) but rather a combination of Socratic autobiography and impassioned self-defense of Socrates' way of life.
		The Apology begins with what appear to be Socrates' opening remarks to defend himself against the charges of impiety and corrupting the youth before his fellow Athenians in an Athenian court.

		For many individuals, all they want is to hear the words, “I am wrong.” If the apology neglects accepting responsibility for their actions, many partners will not feel as though the apology was meaningful and sincere.
		For a mate who speaks this apology language, if an apology does not admit fault, it is not worth hearing.
		A genuine apology will be accompanied by the assurance that you still love your mate and have a desire to right the wrong-doings committed.

		His ability to do this effectively is greatly enhanced by his having a good understanding of the competing theologies, as well as by his ability to surmount the verbal barrier.
		The Apology was frequently reprinted throughout the 18th and 19th centuries.
		A few months after printing the Apology we placed it online at the Quaker Heritage Press website, www.qhpress.org, where many other historic Quaker writings can be found, including Barclay's earlier work, A Catechism and Confession of Faith.

	SparkNotes: The Apology: Summary
		Plato's The Apology is an account of the speech Socrates makes at the trial in which he is charged with not recognizing the gods recognized by the state, inventing new deities, and corrupting the youth of Athens.
		Thus, in The Apology, Socrates attempts to defend himself and his conduct--certainly not to apologize for it.
		This is the only instance in The Apology of the elenchus, or cross-examination, which is so central to most Platonic dialogues.

	Commentary on the Apology of Socrates
		This is probably the least honest part of the Apology and perhaps might be considered evidence for the authenticity of Plato's rendition, since he might otherwise have been at pains to fix up the argument and address the real issue, treason, and not beat a straw man, as Socrates does.
		In the Apology one peculiarity is that, even as Socrates tries to get Meletus to admit that he would not knowingly do wrong, Socrates never concedes to his accusers the benefit of this principle.
		In fact, it does not become an issue in the Apology, since his accusers think that he is an atheist and are probably unaware that his criticism of their religion is more moralistic than atheistic.

		Socrates is of the school of thought that citizens are under a prima facie obligation to obey the law regardless on their stand about how unjust the law might be.
		In the Apology, Socrates leans on the notion that confronted with a law one profoundly disagrees with, one can set aside the general obligation to obey and disobey.
		While I did not agree with Socrates in The Apology, I could understand and respect his preceived duty to obey the law, but as he began to philosophize about the soul and its properties it seemed that he was building his elaborate castle on shifting ground.

		The apology was both swift and sincere, and on my part is certainly accepted.

	Socrates Apology
		But as both these accusations must have been obviously false to an unprejudiced tribunal, the accusers relied for the success of their cause on perjured witnesses, and the envy of the judges, whose ignorance would readily yield to misrepresentation, and be influenced and guided by false eloquence and fraudulent arts.
		For to such a one it will most clearly appear from this very Apology, that Socrates was accused of impiety for asserting that he was connected in a very transcendant degree with a presiding daemon, to whose direction he confidently submitted the conduct of his life.
		Besides, in the course of this Apology he asserts, in the most unequivocal and solemn manner, his belief in polytheism; and this is indubitably confirmed in many places by Plato, the most genuine of his disciples, and the most faithful recorder of his doctrines.

		The last of them, it appears, was the very man whose letter provoked the President into the conduct, for which the apology is essential.
		An apology is this President’s only hope of regaining the slightest measure of confidence, of what has been, for nearly two years, a clear majority of his people.
		Bush, the others — for warnings unheeded five years ago, for war unjustified four years ago, for battle unprepared three years ago — they are not weighted with the urgency and necessity of this one.

	Tertullian : T.H. BINDLEY, The Apology of Tertullian (1890)
		That he was also well versed in the art of rhetoric, the reader of the APOLOGY will at once admit: the arguments are accumulated with the skill, and sometimes with the one-sidedness, of an advocate holding a brief in his own case, and pleading with an impassioned earnestness born of deep personal conviction.
		The APOLOGY was written in the year 197, very soon after his conversion, and the reader may, happily, forget the subsequent lapse of its author into heresy.
		The immediate purpose of the APOLOGY was to protest against the wholesale condemnation of a body of men on the mere presumption of a criminality which had never been proved.

		The U.S. government may be preparing to offer a formal apology for using fl men to study syphilis in Tuskegee, Ala., conducted between 1932 and 1972, said Dr. David Satcher, director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
		Satcher said the apology offered by President Clinton in 1995 to victims of secret radiation experiments may be replicated.
		Even as the government prepares to apologize publicly on May 16 to the members of the Tuskegee Syphilis Experiment, there is one related group that remains out of the public consciousness: the 22 wives, 17 children, and two grandchildren who contracted syphilis, possibly as a result of the study.
