Plato

Philosopher and Mathematician

Plato was the philosopher who founded history's first ‘university’ and made us question whether the world we see is real or just a shadow on the wall. Born in 427 BC in Greece, he was a disciple of Socrates and was so affected by his death that he spent the rest of his life writing philosophical dialogues in which his master always gave the best answers.

He founded the Academy of Athens, where he taught his ideas on politics, ethics and the theory of ideas, which basically says that true reality is on a higher plane - a concept that, centuries later, became the inspiration for The Matrix. He died in 347 BC, but his legacy lives on, especially about what we consider real and illusion.
