Millard explains Garfield’s young life as a canal worker like his father‚ to

“In the republic of mediocrity‚ genius is dangerous” this has been quoted by Robert green Ingersoll. I think mediocrity means average intelligence that resents and envies its betters. It’s like the Japanese saying: A nail that stands up gets hammered down. If you’re different‚ especially in a better way‚ you will likely not be appreciated by others (at least until the superiority of your ideas has been demonstrated so that even the unimaginative can understand their merit). Further‚ people scorn

Plato’s Republic provides insight into what Socrates believed to be the ideal society. However‚ Arlene Saxonhouse critiques the way he portrays women in his society‚ saying that he “turns women into men.” Saxonhouse goes on to explain that what Socrates does to women‚ he also does to philosophers by turning them into politicians. I agree with Saxonhouse’s criticism because she exposes the inconsistency in Socrates thinking‚ however I feel that she does not give enough notice to the overall capabilities
