What is the relationship between Plato and his disciples?
Plato's mentoring relationship is very good.

Three philosophers in ancient Greece: Socrates, Plato and Aristotle. The relationship between them: mentoring, Socrates is not only Plato's teacher but also a close friend, and Plato is Aristotle's teacher and friend. There was once a famous saying that Aristotle said, "I love my teacher, and I love the truth more."

These three thinkers are the most dazzling stars in ancient Greek culture, and their theoretical thoughts come down in one continuous line. On the basis of teachers' thoughts, students have promoted the progress of these philosophical problems. Their theory not only made the Greeks at that time think more about many problems between man and nature, but also left many theoretical achievements of philosophical thinking, which laid the foundation for the development of human philosophy.

Aristotle was born in 384 BC. He came to Athens at the age of 17, studied with Plato and lived with Plato for 17 years. Later, he traveled to Asia Minor and other places until 343 BC, when he was ordered by Macedonian King Philip I to return to China as the tutor of Prince Alexander, who was only 14 years old at that time. In the next seven years, he wholeheartedly taught this young man who will create a great career in the future.
