Knowledge of God and knowledge of self...

I was traveling today and was reading a book while waiting in the Airport called The Fulfillment of All Desires by Ralph Martin (which I recommend as spiritual reading). Then when at Mass this evening, Fr. Alan mentioned the same idea, so I just decided to put it out there as a thought before going to bed...

What struck me is the idea that knowledge of self is tied up with knowledge of God. Without knowledge of God, we cannot have proper knowledge of self.
