the next lengthy part will contain many of the wise sayings of Plato.

Plato was an ancient Greek philosopher, writer, great sage and thinker who was born around 428 BC and died around 347 BC. May 21 is considered the birthday of this great philosopher. In ancient times, this day was festive, because according to ancient Greek mythology, on this day the “radiant” God of light and sun Apollo, the son of the Great Zeus and the beautiful Titanide Leto, was born.

Plato's real name is Aristocles, which literally means "Best Glory" in ancient Greek. The nickname Plato is translated from ancient Greek as: “broad, broad-shouldered.” It is believed that this is what his gymnastics teacher and famous fighter Ariston called Aristocles for Plato’s strong physique. There is also evidence that Plato was not only a strongman with a strong physique, but also was no less than an Olympic champion in pankration - an ancient form of martial arts that combines elements of wrestling and fist fighting.
