Socrates

Socrates was a renowned ancient Greek philosopher, famous for pursuing truth and reflecting on life. He advocated "Know thyself" and often used dialogue and questioning to inspire thought on morality, justice, and the soul. Accused of "impiety" and "corrupting the youth," he was tried and ultimately drank hemlock, holding fast to his beliefs and refusing to flee his fate. His image symbolizes wisdom, conscience, critical spirit, and the courage to devote oneself to truth.
