Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Memoirs of Celebrated Characters, Vol. 2 of 2 All the world recognises the name of Socrates as synonymous with wisdom; few are acquainted with his doctrines, and nothing is known of his life, beyond his conversations and the manner of his death. He was neither a prophet nor a revealer, nor the founder of a religion or § he speaks not to men in the name of the Supreme Deity, he imposes on them no particular faith, he envelops himself in no mysteries, he pronounces no oracles, he performs no miracles; he is a man, and partakes of humanity even in its weaknesses and doubts. But he lived well, he spoke well, and he died well; that is to say, he performed the part in all its humility, and all its greatness, which Providence imposes on every mortal, of thinking justly, leading an honest life, and dying with hope. Such was Socrates, the purest incarnation of good sense and practical philosophy, which Greece, the land of his birth, has exhibited to antiquity.
