Choose one of history's foremost philosophers.

Write a detailed explanation of their theory and how


you incorporate their teachings in your daily life.

A moral philosopher, Socrates. He had no interest in science or math, only in the condition of
his own and other people's souls. The philosophy of Socrates looks at how we ought to live. This
prompted him to have conversations about numerous virtues, like prudence, justice, bravery, piety,
and so forth.

Socrates was my favorite philosopher when I was in eighth grade because he said
something that truly stuck in my mind and made me think of him every time I thought of it this
quotation is "The only true wisdom is in knowing you know nothing." I do believe that when you think
that you know nothing that is the time that your mind will process another piece of knowledge for you
to accept. Because when you think that you know everything, that means your mind is locked in
accepting or gaining knowledge from other people. Why? When you think you know everything and
that you are better than everyone else, you are unable to accept information or wisdom that comes
from other people. Socrates made me realize in my daily life that in order to know everything and
learn more, you must accept the reality that you are still learning.
