苏格拉底的高足，创立麦加拉学派（Megarian School）。把苏格拉底的“善”和巴门尼德的“存在”合二为一，论证善是唯一不动的实在，其他事物皆是幻相。
One of Socrates' most devoted disciples, who witnessed his master's death. He later founded the Megarian school. During Athens' blockade of his native Megara, he risked death by disguising himself in women's clothing to sneak into Athens and sit at Socrates' side in prison. Note: this is Euclides of Megara, not the geometer.
Euclides fused Socrates' ethical pursuit of "the Good" with Parmenides' metaphysics of "Being." He argued that only one unchanging reality exists—the Good—whether called God, Wisdom, or Reason, all names pointing to the same substance. Within this absolute Good there is no evil or suffering; all apparent opposition is illusion born of sensory distortion.
"All good is one; though named in countless ways, it is the same reality. The evil and falsehood that oppose the Good in the senses are mere logical nonentities."
将‘道德上的善德’和‘宇宙底牌存在’等同起来，宣称世界的终极实相只可能是好的、而恶只是善的缺席、遮蔽和幻象。在面对天灾、不公这些不可思议的‘恶魔事实’时，你认为应该选择将恶当成客观大敌死命搏杀，还是应当相信它仅是人类智慧和光明尚未普照到的冰阶盲点？
Socrates treated the Good as an ethical concept whose definition is sought through dialectical inquiry into human virtue. Euclides elevated it to a metaphysical first principle governing the entirety of nature and Being, fusing ethics with ontology.
Are goodness and justice merely human constructs in an indifferent cosmos, or are they woven into the ultimate fabric of reality itself?
