RE: Lighting Plato’s Cave with Netflix and Star Wars

in #life7 years ago (edited)

Deeps thoughts by Plato.
He maybe about masses living in the mode of Ignorance
Only a few try to challenge this , but the masses don't agree with them.
One such challenger was Socrates.
He dared to ask these questions and eventually cost his life.
But his Philosophy is still Alive with us Today!

Sort:  

Yes, great point! Socrates, in fact, told this story in Plato's account of it. Asking the right questions can be a form of rebellion, right?

Quite often it can be.
And the People who do Rebel can most often be crazy enough to stand by thier beliefs, no matter what the circumstances.
They would often value thier Philosophy over money or even thier life.
Such is thier Greatness or Craziness!
