I am sure that when I was younger, I would’ve rolled my eyes at the idea of ancient Greek and Roman wisdom. The more one sees of life the more you understand nothing has changed with respect to human nature.

I am mostly thinking about the idea behind the Greek word “hubris”, in other words, thinking you know more than you do, with the implication of arrogance. This describes the entire medical and pharmaceutical industry.

Remember why the Oracle of Delphi called Socrates the wisest human…. Because he knew what he did not know.
