Could someone translate the above for me?
It's from the movie "The Matrix" when Neo sees the Oracle and she points to the sign on top of the doorway. But I couldn't read it since some of the letters seem to be in roman letters.

This is what I think sign says in letters:

temet mosre
or
temet mosce

Or I might be completely off :)
