Man's Real Genius And Knowledge Remains Preserved

Virtue Is But Heroic Bravery, To Do The Thing Thought To Be True, In Spite Of All Enemies Of Flesh Or Spirit, In Despite Of All Temptations Or Menaces.

That Which We Say And Do, If Its Effects Last Not Beyond Our Lives, Is Unimportant.

Above All Things Let Us Never Forget That Mankind Constitutes One Great Brotherhood; All Born To Encounter Suffering And Sorrow, And Therefore Bound To Sympathize With Each Other.

Magic Is That Which It Is; It Is By Itself, Like The Mathematics; For It Is The Exact And Absolute Science Of Nature And Its Laws . Magic Is The Science Of The Ancient Magi: And The Christian Religion, Which Has Imposed Silence On The Lying Oracles, And Put An End To The Prestiges Of The False Gods , Itself Reveres Those Magi Who Came From The East, Guided By A Star , To Adore The Saviour Of The World In His Cradle.

That Which Causes Us Trials Shall Yield Us Triumph: And That Which Make Our Hearts Ache Shall Fill Us With Gladness. The Only True Happiness Is To Learn, To Advance, And To Improve: Which Could Not Happen Unless We Had Commenced With Error, Ignorance, And Imperfection. We Must Pass Through The Darkness, To Reach The Light.
