An essay about Socrates, from Plato's point of view about temperance, wisdom, and mans ability to know thyself.
In short, how can man know himself when a man can not know what he doesn't know. Men are good at showing what they know (wisdom) and a man can seem very wise until a situation arises in which the man doesn't have knowledge, and worse, doesn't see a problem because he is ignorant of what he doesn't know.
