"I will not follow where the path may lead, but I will go where there is no path, and I will leave a trail."
— Muriel Strode
"Wind-Wafted Wild Flowers," The Open Court, Vol. 17, No. 8, August 1903, p. 505. We check every line against a primary source.

The popular version says "Do not go where the path may lead." Strode's words are firmer: "I will not follow."

Wear it where nobody's been yet.
