This date in 467 BC was, according to astro.com, the birthday of Socrates. 10 Socrates quotes:
Falling down is not a failure. Failure comes when you stay where you have fallen.
When the debate is lost, slander becomes the tool of the loser.
In every person there is a sun. Just let them shine.
He who is not contented with what he has, would not be contented with what he would like to have.
Sometimes you have to let go to see if there was anything worth holding onto.
When a woman is allowed to become a man's equal, she becomes his superior.
Silence is a profound melody, for those who can hear it above all the noise.
It is better to make a mistake with full force of your being than to carefully avoid mistakes with a trembling spirit.
Do not go through life like leaf blown from here to there believing whatever you are told.
I am a Citizen of the World, and my Nationality is Goodwill.

The six richest people in Britain decide to hold a contest to settle the question of which of them is most successful. It will be a gladiator style contest with each entrant fielding a team of ten super-powered combatants. Entrepreneur Llew Powell sets out to put together his team, which includes his former lover, an employee of his company with a fascinating hobby, two refugees from another dimension (a lonely giant and a drunken sailor), two sisters bound together by a promise, a diminutive doctor, a former Tibetan monk initiate and two androids with a history. As the team train together, alliances form, friendships and more develop, while others find the past is not easy to leave behind.
Meanwhile, a ruthless race of aliens has its eyes on the Earth. Already abducting and enslaving humans, they work towards the final invasion which would destroy life on Earth as we know it. Powell’s group, Combat Team Alpha, stumble upon one of the wormholes the aliens use to travel to Earth and witness for themselves the horrors in store if the aliens aren’t stopped. Barely escaping with their lives, they realise there are more important things to worry about than a fighting competition.
