Adam Weishaupt
The great strength of our Order lies in its concealment let it never appear in any place in its own name but always covered by another name and another occupation.

Adam Weishaupt
And of all illumination which human reason can give, none is comparable to the discovery of what we are, our nature, our obligations, what happiness we are capable of, and what are the means of attaining it.
Adam Weishaupt
