Writing Assignment #2: One of the greatest paradoxes that Socrates helped his students explore was
whether weakness or will—doing wrong when you genuinely knew what was right—ever truly existed. He

art of measurement,” correcting the distortions that skew one’s analyses of benefit and cost. Your
assignment: Write about a time when you did something wrong even though you know it was the wrong
thing to do. Describe the event in detail and your thinking at the time. Conclude your essay by explaining
why it was wrong, what you would do if you had a second chance, and how you will make sure you always
do the right thing even when you would rather not.
