Oracle, which is believed to be the voice of the Greek god Apollo, told Socrates' friend friend Chirephon that nobody is smarter than Socrates. Surprisingly, Socrates speculated that God said that this is the only reason Socrates seems to know only things he does not understand. Socrates explained that this made him different from most of the people he met (I think they think they know something when they do not know) (p. 27). Often others do not know what they claim to know, at least when asked by Socrates.
Socrates was convicted and sentenced to death (Xenophon said he hopes to obtain such a result, explanation of the trial in Plato 's apology seems to corroborate this). The last days of Socrates were recorded in Plato's Euthyphro, apologies, critics, and faedo.

That is a very simple way of speaking. - Socrates was born around 469 BC and became one of the world's most famous philosophers during his lifetime. According to Stanford University Philosophy Encyclopedia, most of the information on Socrates is second hand and unlike many other philosophers, he has never written anything. Known information seems to come from his most famous student Plato's work.
As Plato introduced Socrates' trial and death, writers, artists and philosophers began to review this issue and for some people, Plato's "smartest and smartest" program Democracy and democratic deficiency prompted to be executed; for others, Athens' action is a legitimate defense of recently rebuilt democracy. In the Socratic Test (2007), Andrew Owen said he reluctantly accepted the conviction that the jury voted for the trial in order to be faithful to Athenian's democracy. "In the war, and in the dramatic change of society and intellectuals, I felt that Socrates was forced to publicly express his views, regardless of their outcome.
