The way of Socrates had shown itself to be a limited way because it concerned itself only with the scientific investigation of justice and the virtues, and it had shown itself to be an intransigent way because it chose non-conformity and death. Plato corrected the way of Socrates—he removed the limitation and tempered its intransigence.
