Greek Philosophers
The rise of ancient Greek philosophy happened around 6th
century BC. Plato, Socrates, and Aristotle were the most famous philosophers
living at that time.
But the philosopher I like the most is Zeno who is famous
for his paradoxes. My favorite one is about Achilles and the tortoise. If the
tortoise has a headstart then by the time Achilles gets there, the tortoise
would have already moved further. By the time Achilles gets there, the tortoise
would have already moved a little further. And so on – so that Achilles would
never beat the tortoise.
Who do you think will win the race – Achilles or the
tortoise?
