Albert Pike

"A Human Thought is an actual Existence, and a Force and Power, capable of acting upon and controlling matter as well as mind. "

"Everything actual must also first have been possible, before having actual existence. "

"The double law of attraction and radiation or of sympathy and antipathy, of fixedness and movement, which is the principle of Creation, and the perpetual cause of life. "

"What we have done for ourselves alone dies with us what we have done for others and the world remains and is immortal. "
