In the Apology‚ Socrates asks many people at various status levels about their view on virtue and what wisdom truly means to them.

1) I think eulogy virtues play a big part in everyone’s lives from personal‚ academic‚ or professional. Developing eulogy virtues come from the type of person you really are and are handy to communicate and build relationships with others.
