I am the wisest man alive, for I know one thing, and that is that I know nothing
Classical Greek philosopher, mathematician, student of Socrates, writer of philosophical dialogues, and founder of the Academy in Athens, the first institution of higher learning in the Western world.
Those who tell the stories rule society
There is truth in wine and children
The measure of a man is what he does with power
If women are expected to do the same work as men, we must teach them the same things
I'm trying to think, don't confuse me with facts
Ignorance, the root and stem of every evil
Everything that has a beginning has an ending. Make your peace with that and all will be well
Blushing is the most peculiar and most human of all expressions
To eat less is healthy, to speak less is wisdom, and to sleep less is worship
The advantage of a bad memory is that one enjoys several times the same good things for the first time
Everyone sees what you appear to be, few experience what you really are
I can't imagine a man really enjoying a book and reading it only once
