Unfrequented Paths
$68
“Declining from the public ways, walk in unfrequented paths.”
The Pythagoreans taught in short riddles called symbols, and Iamblichus preserved this one. Thomas Taylor, who translated it, reads it as a call to leave a merely popular life for a considered one.

The line
The line comes from the Pythagorean Symbols preserved by Iamblichus, in Thomas Taylor's translation (1818), a text of the Pythagorean tradition.
The words appear exactly as that translation gives them. The translation is in the public domain, and the text itself is in The Sacred Act’s library.
