qloRy that was QReece In the entire existence of mankind, man has always found ways to enhance his knowledge by pursuing an education. Such pursuers were the Greeks who had in their possession the golden key which opened the gate that led to the path of learning and brought happiness and success. They were motivated by their great willingness and highly regarded pride. They sought reasons for man's desire of self-preservation and challenged to submit their own theories on man’s behavior by thorough research. The Greeks were very ambitious and highly-minded people who sought for age-old problems. Therefore, many of them ventured into distant lands in order to unveil the secrets of wise teachers of the many arts. While on these journeys, they also acquired vast contributions which procreated for them an advancement in civilization. Through their great endeavors a multitude of knowledge, basic laws, and theories have been passed on through the ages for the future generations by their great orators and philosophers.
