diogenes
الفيلسوف الإغريقي ‘’ديوجينيس’’ أو ديوجين


Explanation:
يذكر المؤرخون اليونانيون أن الفيلسوف الإغريقي ‘’ديوجينيس’’ أو ديوجين الذي عاش في القرن الثالث قبل الميلاد، كان يسير في وضح النهار حاملا بيده قنديلا. وعندما سئل عما يفعل أجاب ‘’أبحث عن إنسان’’. وفي رواية أخرى، لما سئل: لماذا القنديل والشمس ساطعة؟ أجاب: إني أبحث عن ‘’الحقيقة’’.
