    Still‚ there are many people who are in opposition to Socrates’ decision of remaining in prison and firmly waiting for his execution. Some critics would claim that Socrates is causing harm by accepting his execution and bringing an end to his life as a teacher. Yet‚ this claim is refuted because whether Socrates was executed‚ or he chose to escape and fled into exile‚ he would not have been able to teach the Athenian people either well.

    Socrates’ exchange with Meno starts as Meno asks whether temperance can be taught. Meno proposes that it might be an aftereffect of practice or an innate characteristic.
