Sample Book Insights:
#1 I once visited the Metropolitan Museum of Art, and while I was there, I found a painting that had been painted in Paris in the autumn of 1786 by the thirty-eight-year-old Jacques-Louis David.
#2 The death of Socrates marked a defining moment in the history of philosophy. It was significant enough that it was painted by the French painter Charles-Alphonse Dufresnoy in 1650.
#3 The postcard depicted the last edifying moments of a transcendent being. It contrasted sharply with my own behavior, which was to be liked rather than to speak the truth. I did not publicly doubt ideas to which the majority was committed.
#4 The Greek philosopher Socrates was the first to question authority, and his life and death were an invitation to become wise through philosophy.
