Socrates believed that learning is a lifelong journey that continues even after formal education ends. He emphasized the importance of self-examination and continuous questioning to deepen one's understanding of oneself and the world. Leaving school is just the beginning of the true pursuit of knowledge and wisdom.

Did Socrates leave behind behind his own written works?

Socrates did not leave behind any written works. All that we know of him (his life, his philosophy) is based on the writings of his students and contemporaries: most notably, Plato's dialogues. However, scholars haven't always agreed that these dialogues reveal an accurate portrayal of Socrates; hence, the "Socratic Problem" emerges.


Did Socrates leave any writings?

No, Socrates did not leave any writings. Basically, Socrates practiced philosophy by talking one-on-one with people; instead of trying to make them agree with what he thought, he tried to get them to think seriously for themselves. People seriously concerned to encourage people to think for themselves probably should not write a book.Why?Well, unthinking people may just attach themselves fanatically to the ideas presented in the book. This may have been why, for example, the Buddha, too, never wrote a book.

What is the aesthetic theories of socrates?

Socrates doesn't really have aesthetic theories, but his student Plato does have aesthetic theories and part of those aesthetic theories could be what Socrates had to say about aesthetics. It is unkown what part of those theories are from Socrates and what parts are from Plato himself, this is mainly because Socrates didn't really write anything down. Plato did write things down and he tells how Socrates thought about different theories, some of the ideas Plato introduces as it is from Socrates whilst a part of those are from himself. So if you want to know about Socrates his aesthetic theories you are going to have to look at Plato his aesthic theories
