Great minds think alike?
Good morning, ladies and gentlemen. Today I'm going to talk about two great thinkers. Socrates and Confucius. two men with great minds. Both English and Chinese have a saying about great minds,"Great minds think alike" and "英雄所见略同."Then do Socrates and Confucius think alike?I will try to compare the two great minds interms of their lives.thoughts and influence. Now let's get started.
Both Socrates and Confucius seemed to lead a meaningful and colorful life. As a young man, Socrates had been a brave soldier fighting in a war. Confucius'early life seemed to be equally difficult, since he had to earn his living at menial tasks. After that, it seems that Socrates and Confucius followed different ways in their lives. In middle age.Socrates did nothing but ask people questions in the marketplace. By contrast, Confucius tried all possible ways to achieve his dream. For example, he had been a teacher.gathering young men to study his doctrines. He was also given an office in the government, although he did not have real power. When he saw that he could accomplish nothing.he resigned his post and set off on travels to advocate his Way in other states. After that, he resumed his teaching.
Socrates and Confucius spent their lives in different ways.because they had different pursuits. Socrates spent his whole life pursuing wisdom by asking questions. For Socrates,wisdom meant understanding the true nature of our existence,including the limits of what we can know. He declared that if we do not think about what we are doing, then life is not worth living. Therefore. he kept asking questions to himself and to others. By doing this, he helped people understand such concepts as moral and courage and realize what they knew and what they didn't. Socrates would die rather than give up his pursuit of wisdom and truth.
Confucius, however, pursued common welfare, that is, the well-being of all the common people. During his times, the common people lived a miserable and tragic life. Confucius could not tolerate these conditions and resolved to devote his life to trying to right them. According to Confucius, in a natural and normal state of society men should Confucius and the rulers should aim to bring about the welfare and happiness of all the common people. As I have mentioned,he tried all possible methods to achieve this goal. He taught young men to promote his doctrines; he worked in the government to put his teachings into practic
e;he also travelled around many states to find a ruler who would use his Way.
Socrates and Confucius pursued different things, but both had great influence. Socrates laid the foundation of Western philosophy. With him the subject really took off. However.the two thinkers have influenced the Western tradition and the Chinese tradition in different ways. Following Socrates'pursuit of truth and wisdom. Western thinkers seemed to be more interested in studying the physical world. After Confucius, Chinese thinkers paid more attention to interpersonal relationships.
Then, do great minds think alike? Well, they may have different pursuits, but they have the same devotion to their pursuits. That is what I have learned about Socrates and Confucius. Thank you.
