Who made the motto 'know thyself'?

Answer 1

Type your answer here... The phrase goes way back to the common version which is in Latin. That which a lot of us are familiar with; nosce te ipsum It goes back even further than that. The egyptians were very understanding of what it meant as well. http://web.me.com/thewashitaw/Hotep_Imformation_Exchange/Know_Thyself.html

it is a phrase that is designed to be asked by anyone. Almost a test of oneself.

it is usually something one should know about oneself, before entering into any higher learning, or before trying to achieve a higher state of being; consciousness, or other meta physical state.
