The ancient philosopher Socrates is known for many famous sayings and values that have been inspirational throughout the centuries. One particular motto that has been ascribed to him (although it may in fact have its origins in Plato or some other ancient philosopher) and has served as a code of conduct for human behavior well into modern times is this: "Know thyself."
Socrates was not a god - he was an Athenian citizen, philosopher and warrior. He used such phrases as 'Know yourself' and 'Life without analytical thought is not fit for a human being'.

You are probably referring to his statement, "The unexamined life is not worth living." As a code of conduct, we can say that he meant that it is very important for each person to spend time in deep contemplation of such ideas as justice, right and wrong, truth and beauty and then to insure that they lived their own lives in conformity with the right and the good. This is as opposed to merely existing from day to day with no regard for anything beyond one's personal comfort and happiness.

He is mainly known for his self-knowing motto "Know thyself" (Gr. Γνώθι σε εαυτόν). Only if you know your self can you be a true philosopher. Socrates was the first to bring philosophy's focus on human rather than the exploration of "metaphysical truths". And this is what we need most today...
