Solution

The correct option is A Socrates
The philosophy 'knowledge is a virtue: virtue is knowledge', was put forward by Socrates. He firmly believed in morality, religion, democracy and ethics. His open-minded and independent thinking enraged some of his fellow Athenians, who accused him falsely, to get him punished.
