I'm working on a research paper for philosopy and what I'm trying to prove is Socrates' "All I know is that I know nothing". The way I'm trying to prove this quote is like this: Socrates believed that knowlege is only "justified true belief". Beliefs stem from what we observe, and our observations come from perception and sense-data. Since all our perspectives can be different or even flawed (like how some view the glass as half empty, and others view the glass as half full) no one is "right" and therefore the things we call "facts" don't really exist, so we can never have accurate "knowledge" of anything. So..what would be a good thesis for this paper, and how would I go about organizing it?
