The Apolgy 51-61

Page 43 Paragraph 3
"I have gained this reputation, gentlemen, from nothing more or less tahn a kind of wisdom."
The reason I thought this was interesting was because I think that this is what people just assume of Socrates because of what they hear. They believe that  Socrates is a bad person because of what they hear which I think is unfair.

Pericles Funeral

IN my text I underlined a sentence that said "AS for poverty no one need be ashemed of to admit: the real shame is not taking practical measure to get out of it.

One way that this is related to the trial is because it is talking about the people and how they are so poor.
