I was just thinking about it today about how everybody wants to be the big strong guy or smartest guy something of that nature but I guess I've always admired people that are the old wise characters in a story. Because they seem to know a lot more than what we think. Intelligence is different from wisdom, wisdom you have to gain through experience versus intelligence which is a set of rules and already existing information.
Well I didn't expect socretes was a perfect man on a petistal. He knew he was imperfect and people would have critcisms of how he thinks. The best parts that he teaches, I follow him. The bad parts I'd leave aside. Plus he's a way better thinker than most people of today.
it is better to be just, than unjust, because, a society bent on justice, assumes two things; the individual takes responsibility first, and society takes responsibility, after the individual falters. what this means with a micro-scope, is that our actions are never for the purpose of ourselves, alone. to do so, is unjust or unfair. but, to coordinate our actions in sync with society, is the most just-action possible.
To ponder is to consider, to think is to process, to learn is to become enlightened. To become aware, is to become empowered. That is the truth of metaphysics.
[Bill and Ted are in Ancient Greece] Bill: [approaching Socrates] How's it going? I'm Bill, this is Ted. We're from the future. Socrates: Socrates. Ted: [whispering to Bill] Now what? Bill: I dunno.

Honest question, do you believe in what Socraes says or at least upholds that his philsophy, cocnerned with alignment with the truth and separation from lies, is a good philosophy?
@@WildMen4444 If Diogenes was a fan of anyone, it must be himself. Like he stated to Alexander the "Great" before the latter went to conquer half the world. "If I was Alexander, I'd wish I was Diogenes too".
Demon comes from Daimon which is a spirit guide. Its a intermediary entity that works with humans in relation to the gods and nature. Sadly christianity has warped everything from its actual meaning into something ridiculous.
I think he's too cerebral and attached to logical thinking to be able to appreciate Taoism. The first verse of the Daodejing alone would utterly stymie him. Can you imagine him trying to get Lao zi or Zhuangzi to pin down an exact definition of the Tao?
Another historical figure that has achieved immortality
Recant and live, or drink hemlock and achieve everlasting fame.

History's Greatest Questioner!

more philosophers pls and ty
Now I really need an episode on Diogenes of Synope.
Thank you, Greece! Your beautiful nation has gifted the world. We are forever indebted to you ❤❤❤
Thank you for another good video on such a iconic figure of history

Greatest of all time
Thanks for sharing!
Knowing more made him realize he knew nothing.
It’s a phrase that, in the fullness of time, I have come to embrace.
Beauty is held in the eyes of the beholder. 🤔
True that! Ask my wife
I love Socrates - Thank you

Wisdom comes with aging and the ability to shut up, listen and observe
I know that i know nothing: Wisdom
The more you know the less you know
Wisdom and knowledge: humility and virtue.
Forever the best!
What a great story of Socrates😁👏❤
A truly fascinating story

This is an incredible incredible video. Amazing man and life. Absolutely hilarious moments questioning who’s the smartest man too haha

How could Socrates know that he knew nothing if he knew nothing?
Haha, checkmate!
Because he knew nothing
Because he didn't even knew that
He said the only thing that he knows is that he knows nothing. So he says that he knows one thing only.
📑💎🏆 Great insightful & fruitful video 🏆💎📑
100% Agree!
@@Chrono-Curator yes 🎯
You did great bro
I wonder if "changing ones mind" when faced by reasonable arguments was always viewed as "weakness" as it is today?
I got a grip, i see the thru the cracks, entrapment , a rigg game .

I kinda wanted to ask the same, but unsure how to word it; so thanks :D
Aristotle was his second student not just a great philosopher
Aristotle was actually Plato's student
@@WildMen4444 no actually he was Socrates's student
@@2prider451 Socrates was executed in 399 BC. Aristotle was born in 384 BC...15 years after Socrates died.
@@2prider451 Prove it. Prove that Socrates and Aristotle knew each other personally. I'm so eager to hear what you have to say.
@@2prider451it’s not too late to delete
Socratic method allows to grow endlessly
love the ai art😍
Was Socrates the world first philosopher?
No that would he thales
No
So he is just being correct
Not Demon, Daemon. Inner Voice or Higher self.
Wonder who would have the sharpest tongue: Diogenes or Socrates. .
Diogenes was actually inspired by Socrates and was angry at Plato because he felt he overcomplicated Socrates' teachings
@@WildMen4444 I heard of how Diogenes made a mockery of some of Plato's perspective on things.
@@bohemianwriter1 Yes. He wasn't the biggest fan of Plato. Or of most people really.
@@WildMen4444 If Diogenes was a fan of anyone, it must be himself.
Like he stated to Alexander the "Great" before the latter went to conquer half the world.
"If I was Alexander, I'd wish I was Diogenes too".
@@bohemianwriter1 Why put great in quotations? No love for the Son of Zeus-Ammon?
Sounds very likely he was involved with the occult.
Demon comes from Daimon which is a spirit guide. Its a intermediary entity that works with humans in relation to the gods and nature. Sadly christianity has warped everything from its actual meaning into something ridiculous.
He was the original Taoist.
I think he's too cerebral and attached to logical thinking to be able to appreciate Taoism. The first verse of the Daodejing alone would utterly stymie him. Can you imagine him trying to get Lao zi or Zhuangzi to pin down an exact definition of the Tao?
@@silverchairsgI think he'd get it. It's really the same stuff but in a different aesthetic.
He was european monk.
He was very nice person but, what about his tyriant friend?

Then Christianity came :XD
