Delphic maxims

Delphic maxims are like really old sayings that people in ancient Greece used to live by. They were written on a big temple in a city called Delphi and were supposed to be messages from the gods.

These sayings were important because they gave people guidance on how to live a good life. They talked about things like being kind to others, respecting your elders, and using your brain to make good choices.

People would try to follow these maxims in their daily lives to try and be the best person they could be. They believed that by following these sayings, they would please the gods and live a happy life.

Even though these sayings are really old, some people still study and follow them today. They remind us to be good people and to treat others with kindness and respect.
