His way of life was by what he believed in and what he felt was his god was saying to him and want he had to do for god. Socrates thought on his wisdom came through his god itself. When his ideas were applied to others, such as poets, if took a combination of his ideas and what his god had said for him to pass judgement on them. When Socrates created the standards of his gods he made the epitome of goodness and put them on a higher pedestal than men. Socrates’ piety was so much a part of him that death was what he wanted. Socrates believed that his god was so all knowing that he ended his defense with these words “Well, now it is time to be off, I to die and you to live: but which of us has the happier prospect is unknown to anyone but God.” Socrates’ last word was god in his defense and people still debate what is the purpose of Socrates’ words in his defense, but his constant mentioning of god and his unwavering faith show him as making peace with his mission that his daemon had given
