Socrates spent decades in Athens questioning everyone (plebs and elite) about justice, piety, and knowledge. He wrote nothing, founded no formal school, sought no office, and accepted no payment.

He walked a path, alone. Taight what he thought. And died for his beliefs. In his wake, he left the Socratic Method, Aristotle's teachings and western civilization.

The Trivium is a direct result of one man, who walked a path then people followed. Not a leader, but a pioneer.

That's very cool. I bought a Taylor liberty tree in 2002. 1 of 400. I know how you feel.

Then they became the machine.
