"I love my teacher, I love wisdom even more" -------Socrates

I respect and love my teacher, but I am more dedicated to the pursuit of wisdom . The young Socrates invited famous wise men to discuss various important social and philosophical issues. He also received inheritance and learning from the wise woman Diotima. By claiming to have "spiritual imprints," he showed what was and was not allowed to be done.

Socrates lived a hard life. No matter how cold or hot he is, he always wears ordinary clothes, often without shoes, and doesn't pay attention to the quality of food. But he didn't seem to notice, he was just focused on studying. The young Socrates learned sculpture from his father. Later he became familiar with Homer's epic poems and the works of other famous poets, becoming an autodidact. He makes a living by sharing information. In his thirties, he became a social ethics teacher without paying salary or housing.

Socrates believed that he was God's gift and messenger to Athens. His mission is to talk to people all day long, discuss issues, seek the most useful truths and wisdom, and get people talking about different topics in all areas of people's lives on the streets and other public places. For example: What is piety? What is democracy? What is virtue? What is courage? What is truth? What are you doing What are you capable of? Are you a politician? If so, what do you know about government? are you a teacher? How do you overcome ignorance before teaching the ignorant? The theme of the debate is to teach people to understand that people are indeed very ignorant of these important issues, so they must find true justice and goodness through critical discussion in order to change souls and save the city.

Socrates said: "My mother is a midwife, and I want to follow in her footsteps. I am a spiritual midwife, and I help others develop their own ideas." He compared himself to a gadfly , this is God's gift to Athens. God's original intention was to give it to Athens, to use this to wildly stimulate the country, because Athens is like a horse, but because it is fat and lazy, it becomes boring and sleepy, so the gadfly no matter what She must bite it firmly, accuse it, and persuade her at all times, so that she can awaken her sleepiness and rejuvenate her spirit. Socrates believed that Athens was a sacred mission given to him by God. This sense of mission and the resulting thinking and research have become his life purpose and philosophical practice. So he risked his life. In this sense, he claims to be a saint criticizing the current situation.

He is really a beloved teacher throughout his life, but he is more obsessed with the pursuit and loves the realm of wisdom.
