Saint Thomas More, born in 1478 in London, was an influential English statesman, humanist, and writer. He is best known for his steadfast convictions, brilliant mind, and commitment to his faith, which ultimately led to his execution by King Henry VIII. His intellect and work in the areas of law, government, and education have secured his place in history as a key figure in the development of Western thought and the Catholic Church.
