Socrates it was who taught men to think aright, to love knowledge and goodness, to realize the worth of friendship, courage and wisdom. To him as a consequence many subsequent philosophers went for their ideas. Hence after his death we find that many schools of philosophy came into existence. Besides the schools of Plato, Aristotle and Epicurus, there arose also the Cynic School of Antisthenes and the Megaric School of Euclid, all of which incorporated some of the fundamental doctrines of Socrates or contained elements of pre-Socratic systems, modified by the influence of their common master.
