Beautiful Quotes from Socrates

Hey, guys! Today I found some beautiful, inspiring quotes from Socrates, as I am learning about him in history right now. I love these quotes, and I hope you do, too! 

"The secret to change is to focus all your energy on not fighting the old, but on building the new." 

"Strong minds discuss ideas, average minds discuss events, weak minds discuss people." 

"Sometimes you build up walls not to keep people out, but to see who cares enough to break them down."

"It is better to change an opinion, rather than persist in a wrong one." 

"Falling down is not a failure. Failure comes when you stay where you've fallen."

"The secret of happiness, you see, is not found in seeking more, but in developing the capacity to enjoy less" 

"Be kind for everyone you meet is fighting a hard battle." 

"Everyone wants to tell you what to do and what's good for you. They don't want you to find your own answers, they want you to believe theirs." 

"True wisdom comes to each of us when we realize how little about life, ourselves, and the world around us."

"Be slow to fall into friendship; but when thou art in, continue firm and constant." 

"He who is not contented with what he has, would not be contented with what he would like to have."

"Silence is a profound melody for those who can hear it above all the noise." 

"To find yourself, think for yourself." 

"True knowledge exists knowing that you know nothing." 

"The greatest lesson I have learned in life is that I have a lot left to learn." 

"The years wrinkle our skin, but lack of enthusiasm wrinkles our soul."
