    What factors in a difficult situation make a character favorable? Perhaps it is the one who is out for the greater good of the majority. Sticking to the right judgment is what many are all taught to do‚ but what if making the right and just judgement only brought rejection from the people. Out of the both leading noble men from An Enemy of the People and A Man for All Seasons‚ I believe that Dr. Thomas Stockmann is the greatest character because of his persistence and good intentions he carried.

Then‚ through the unrelenting questioning of Socrates‚ Polemarchus’ definition evolves into "doing good to friends and harm to enemies"
