Socrates Facts

Socrates was a classical Greek Athenian philosopher. Credited as one of the founders of Western philosophy, he is an enigmatic figure known chiefly through the accounts of later classical writers, especially the writings of his students Plato and Xenophon and the plays of his contemporary Aristophanes. Many would claim that Plato's dialogues are the most comprehensive accounts of Socrates to survive from antiquity. (469 BC – 399 BC)

Socrates

I am the wisest man alive, for I know one thing, and that is that I know nothing.
Socrates

The only true wisdom is in knowing you know nothing.
Socrates
