Anaximenes

"First Thales, then his student Anaximandros, and then Anaximenes. Without the teachings of those before him, it's safe to say Anaximenes would not have reached the conclusions he did."

―A philosopher on Anaximenes and his teachers, c. 422 BCE.

Anaximenes (c. 586 BCE – c. 526 BCE) was a Greek philosopher from the ancient Greek city of Miletios. He was a student of Anaximandros, who himself was a student of Thales of Miletios.

During the Peloponnesian War, Anaximenes as well as his teachers were mentioned by two philosophers during their conversation within the Sanctuary of Delphi.
