The Golden Verses Of Pythagoras


And Other Pythagorean Fragments

Selected And Arranged By Florence M. Firth


With An Introduction By Annie Besant

[1904]

This little collection of sayings, attributed to the Greek philosopher and mathematician Pythagoras and his followers, embody what we know about his teachings today.
Besides exhortations to live a moral, simple and contemplative life, these pithy aphorisms allow a glimpse of a bit of the Pythagorean schools' deeper knowledge.

A detailed study of the Golden Verses by the French esoteric writer Fabre d'Olivet is also available at this site.
