Who was Socrates and why would you follow in his footsteps of being a philosopher?

info on Socrates;

Socrates, a famous philosopher, studied politics and moral philosophy and prided himself on claiming not to know things, this is because, in the study of philosophy the goal is not to have  more knowledge, its to be able to ask more questions and think and see and question every aspect of your life. Socrates asked a lot of questions, influencing how many philosophers today show and teach their ideas. He claimed knowledge came from questions. His name is attached to the Socratic method -- in which you constantly ask questions so that you can steadily break down a big problem into smaller parts and can test hypotheses against.

I would follow in his footsteps because his method and clever ways are, in my opinion, key to a philosophers success.

Viewed by many as the founding figure of Western philosophy, Socrates (469-399 B.C.) is at once the most exemplary and the strangest of the Greek philosophers. He grew up during the golden age of Pericles' Athens, served with distinction as a soldier, but became best known as a questioner of everything and everyone.

Explanation:

Why would you follow in his footsteps? ->

Socrates (470/469–399 B.C.E.) is remembered for his teaching methods and for asking thought-provoking questions. Instead of lecturing his students, he asked them difficult questions in order to challenge their underlying assumptions—a method still used in modern-day law schools. Because Socrates wrote little about his life or work, much of what we know comes from his student Plato. He was a good teacher not sure if I'd follow in his footsteps

I dunno if this answers ur question! Lettme know! your input is appreciated!

american political culture includes a plenty of focus views and preferences. not all westerns experience the same opinions, of course, but the large preponderance promises to these general ideas, including equality, justice, freedom, individualism, integrity, and difference.

the united states is a democratic republic. residents elect representatives to governmental, nation, and local administration; those deputies create the regulations that command u.s. community. although emptiness in u.s. law needs it, in usage, the administrative system is ruled by executive factions.

it all depends on how long the hours are. i think they wouldn't approve of it. in my opinion.
