Where each thread leads
Prometheus
The Titan who steals fire for humanity and is punished for it — the West's oldest story about the cost of knowledge.
Logos
A Greek word meaning word, account, ratio and reason at once — and one of the most consequential ambiguities in Western thought.
Tao
The way — both the course things naturally take and the path a person might align with.
Wisdom
Not the amount you know, but what you do with it — judgement formed by knowledge, experience and restraint.
