Quotes

Every soul is engaged in a great work – the labor of personal liberation from the state of ignorance. The world is a great prison; its bars are the Unknown. And each is a prisoner until, at last, he earns the right to tear these bars from their moldering sockets, and pass, illuminated and inspired into the darkness, which becomes lighted by that presence.
MANLY P. HALL, 33° Scottish Rite Freemason
Freemasonry is a science of symbols, in which, by their proper study, a search is instituted after truth, that truth consisting in the knowledge of the divine and human nature of God and the human Soul.
DR. ALBERT G. MACKEY, 33° Scottish Rite Freemason
Freemasonry embraces the highest moral laws and will bear the test of any system of ethics or philosophy ever promulgated for the uplift of man.
GEN. DOUGLAS MCARTHUR, 33° Scottish Rite Freemason
