Socrates' wife
Who would have expected that the philosopher Socrates, who was known for his culture, wisdom, and the power of his words, would live in an environment full of screaming, ignorance, and nervousness from his wife?
This woman was known to be harsh-tongued, strong, and tyrannical. She made her husband leave every day at dawn and return after sunset. However, Socrates says about it:
“I am indebted to this woman. If it were not for her, I would not have learned that wisdom is in silence and happiness is in sleep.”
He also says: I was afflicted with three misfortunes: language, poverty, and my wife. As for the first, I overcame it with diligence, the second I overcame with frugality, and as for the third, I was unable to overcome it.
One day, her voice was getting louder while he was sitting with his students, cursing and cursing him as usual in front of his students. But this time, he was surprised that water poured on him while he was sitting with his students. He wiped the water off his face in astonishment and said, “We should have expected it to rain after all these thunders.”
Socrates' calm style and silence led to the death of his wife from a heart attack.
Yes, his wife died after she sparked a dispute with Socrates... Her husband maintained silence, silence and peace of mind... As for her, she was like a volcano... which led to severe pain in the heart and shoulder and she died that night.
