Answer Question

2 Answers - Sort by: Date | Rating

    Philosophy, one of the most sought after subjects the students of which are considered as the intellectual one, signifies the views a person has and according to these particular views the person usually lives his life.
         
    When you go to the root of the word you will find that the two words that conjugate together to form the word describe the exact meaning of the word. It is form of the two words 'Phil' and 'Sophia' and they convey the idea of love and wisdom respectively. So the person who loves to imbue wisdom in himself with his thinking can be considered as the student of philosophy.
          
    You can find numerous great names who are considered as philosophers and the prime among them are Aristotle and Plato
