Socrates asked the young man to walk with him towards the river. When the water got up to their neck, Socrates took the young man by surprise and ducked him into the water. The boy struggled to get out but Socrates was (34) strength and kept him there until the boy started turning blue. Socrates pulled his head out of the water and the first thing the young man did was to gasp and take a deep breath of (35) wind. Socrates asked, “What did you want the most when you were there?” The boy replied, "Air." Socrates said, “That is the secret to success.
