Historically they are in dispute, though they are frequently claimed to be "Kai su, teknon?" This phrase is Greek, translated as either "even you child" or a Greek curse approximating a stronger version of "Damn you, boy!" Both Suetonius and Plutarch (two preeminent ancient historians) claimed silence, though Suetonius wrote about the possibility of the statement "Kai su, teknon?"

In the Shakespearean play they are:

"Et tu, Brute? Then fall, Caesar!"

Caesar said "Et tu Brute" (even you Brutus!) as he was surprised that Brutus had joined into the assassination plot.
