Explanation:

The Sophists of the Greek focused on aspects that defined/explained reality and the characteristics related to reality in a broader range, i.e., to understand it more deeply beyond common senses, stimuli experienced by an individual in his/her life.

Socrates, who also taught to people (like Sophists) did not charge any fee for it (unlike Sophists). He believed that this is a part of every individual's life and it is our right to know about these basic values in a deeper way.

As a pivotal figure in Greek Philosophy, Socrates changed the dimension of thought and approach towards understanding life. Prior to Socrates, philosophers in Greek completely focused on physical and natural elements. But Socrates discarded the metaphysical element of it. He developed a process of teaching people moral, social and psychological elements to understand the same.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
