Socrates
“Intelligent individuals learn from every thing and every one; average people, from their experiences. The stupid already have all the answers.”
Socrates

Socrates
“To fear death, gentlemen, is no other then to think oneself wise when one is not, to think one knows what one does not know.”
Socrates, Apology

Socrates
“A man who really fights for justice must lead a private, not a public, life if he is to survive for even a short time.”
Socrates, Apology

Socrates
“There is one way, then, in which a man can be free from all anxiety about the fate of his soul - if in life he has abandoned bodily pleasures and adornments, as foreign to his purpose and likely to do more harm than good, and has devoted himself to the pleasures of acquiring knowledge, and so by decking his soul not with a borrowed beauty but with its own - with self-control, and goodness, and courage, and liberality, and truth - has fitted himself to await his journey in the next world.”
Socrates

Socrates
“You are wrong sir, if you think that a man who is any good at all should take into account the risk of life or death; he should look to this only in his actions, whether what he does is right or wrong.”
Socrates, Apology
