Plato: Five Dialogues

                Hello friends from second period. Once again another blog, WOW our time is certainly coming to an end, But enough with our senior year.... LETS GET INTO SOME BOOKS. Plato: Five Dialogues is written by the man himself Plato, and it has been refined by many people to make it a little more readable. It is a set of 5 dialogues of Socrates speaking with people. Yes Socrates, you thought it would be Plato, BUT NO. As one of Socrates' followers, Plato would write down a lot of what Socrates would say. This would soon be a major part for people to understand Socrates' way of thinking, religion, and his teachings. The 5 dialogues are, Euthyphro, apology, crito, meno, and phaedo. Not very liked by the people of Athena, he soon would on trial for a big misconception that he was misguiding young kids in his teaching.
                 If you are the type of person to go back and reread the same sentence you were on 10 minutes ago then this book may not be for you. The level of speech that Socrates uses to talk is highly advanced and only people that watch Rick and Morty would understand. If you are the type of person that is open to learn about some great morals, and pious ways of living is for you!!! What is pious you say? well you'll find out if you read these dialogues! From my personal experience, this book has certainly made a huge impact in my every day life, and choices. You don't have to be religious to take in these great morals that Socrates speaks of.
