More quotes by Socrates

Socrates
I know nothing except the fact of my ignorance.
Socrates
If you want to be wrong then follow the masses.
Socrates

Socrates
Who knows if to live is to be dead, and to be dead, to live? And we really, it may be, are dead in fact I once heard sages say that we are now dead, and the body is our tomb.
Socrates
The years wrinkle our skin, but lack of enthusiasm wrinkles our soul.
Socrates
Only the extremely ignorant or the extremely intelligent can resist change.
Socrates
The friend must be like money, that before you need it, the value is known.
Socrates
I am confident that there truly is such a thing as living again, that the living spring from the dead, and that the souls of the dead are in existence.
Socrates
