Socrates is simply the better man, and this dialogue shows it, again. He first debates Gorgias, a man that has "an answer for any and all questions". After him, he debates Polux, Gorgia's number one fanboy. And at last, he debates against an honest man that becomes his ultimate nemesis, Callicles, the hater of philosophy.

Socrates will expose the problems with the art of rethoric, and will reveal the best way to live. However, will any of those three truly accept his words?
