Illuminate the opposition.
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
We must win the common people in every corner. This will be obtained chiefly by means of the schools, and by open, hearty behavior, show, condescension, popularity, and toleration of their prejudices, which we shall at leisure root out and dispel.
Adam Weishaupt
G is Grace, the Flaming Star is the Torch of Reason. Those who possess this knowledge are indeed Illuminati.
Adam Weishaupt
If a writer publishes any thing that attracts notice, and is in itself just, but does not accord with our plan, we must endeavour to win him over, or decry him.
Adam Weishaupt
It is necessary to gain the common people to our order. The best means to that end is influence in the schools.
Adam Weishaupt
I did not bring Deism into Bavaria more than into Rome. I found it here, in great vigour, more abounding than in any of the neighboring Protestant States. I am proud to be known to the world as the founder of the Illuminati.
Adam Weishaupt

Adam Weishaupt

Adam Weishaupt
The tenor of my life has been the opposite of everything that is vile, and no man can lay any such thing to my charge.
Adam Weishaupt
Salvation does not lie where strong thrones are defended by swords, where the smoke of censers ascend to heaven or where thousands of strong men pace the rich fields of harvest. The revolution which is about to break will be sterile if it is not complete.
Adam Weishaupt
The human race will then become one family, and the world will be the dwelling of Rational Men.
Adam Weishaupt
For the Order wishes to be secret and to work in silence for thus it is better secured from the oppression of the ruling powers, and because this secrecy gives a greater zest to the whole.
Adam Weishaupt
Oh mortal man, is there anything you cannot be made to believe?. Of all the means I know to lead men, the most effectual is a concealed mystery.The hankering of the mind is irresistible.
Adam Weishaupt
Of all the means I know to lead men, the most effectual is a concealed mystery.
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. None is fitter than the three lower degrees of Freemasonry the public is accustomed to it, expects little from it and therefore takes little notice of it.
Adam Weishaupt
The most wonderful thing of all is that the distinguished Lutheran and Calvinist theologians who belong to our order really believe that they see in it (Illuminati) the true and genuine sense of Christian Religion. Oh mortal man, is there anything you cannot be made to believe?
Adam Weishaupt
We see with what keenness and zeal the frivolous business of Freemasons is conducted, by persons knit together by the secrecy of their union.
