a sign hanging in the oracle's kitchen... ever wonder why that sign was there?

was it just dressing for the set? the oracle mentioned it, so it must have some meaning

what I think the sign means was to tell neo that phrase, to remember for a later time, and that later time was when smith was standing over neo at the end of revolutions, and that was when neo remembered that phrase, and realized that he could never defeat smith, and vice versa cause they are both one in the same

It takes a long time and a lot of self-reflection to "know thyself".  If we don't know who we are, there's nothing else we can hope to be sure of.

I supposed it was a form of saw-n'-reap, or whatever the movie technical term is. It comes back later on in one of the films.

It's a reminder to those who chose to seek her guidance. You must know thyself, because you already made the choice, now you just have to understand why you made it.
