Socrates

Socrates quotes:

  • An unexamined life is not worth living.
  • The only thing I know is that I do not know anything.
Socrates' main contribution is the Socratic method or dialectic method. 
  1. It leads to a very deep and fundamental analysis and understanding of a seemingly simple question or a definition. 
  2. This method is a great tool to practice thinking and beneficial to develop a critical  thinking.
Socrates is regarded the father of ethical philosophy, focusing on people , opposite to the naturalists focusing on the nature. 
  • virtue is knowledge.
