Sir Thomas Moore
Sir Thomas More was a 16th-century English statesman, lawyer, and humanist known for his moral integrity and intellectual contributions. He served as Lord Chancellor under King Henry VIII and is famous for refusing to endorse the king’s separation from the Catholic Church, which eventually led to his execution. More’s most renowned work, "Utopia," describes an ideal society based on justice and equality. Canonized as a saint, he is celebrated as a symbol of conscience and principled resistance to political pressure, embodying dedication to faith, ethical integrity, and thoughtful governance.
