"In the beginning was God, today is God. Tomorrow will be God. Who can make an image of God? He has no body. He is as a word which comes out of your mouth. That word! It is no more, it is past, and still it lives! So is God." Pygmy creation myth

"He [Hermes] taught that the Light was universal, and that that Light, which was God, dwelt in the heart of every man: 'I am that Light', He bade them repeat, 'That Light am I'."

"The ceremonies of the Mysteries were intended to portray the higher evolution of man, his return to the divine source whence he came, through the development of the higher part of his nature, which is not merely consequent upon practices of meditation and ceremonial, but even more upon the living out of the ethical precepts which were taught."

"Osiris is in the heavens, but Osiris is also in the very heart of men. When Osiris in the heart knows Osiris in the heavens, then man becomes God, and Osiris, once rent into fragments, again becomes one."
|
|

"The method of reaching divinity was always proclaimed to be unselfishness and self-sacrifice for the sake of others; and the entire story of Christ and of Osiris is an epitome and example of how that sacrifice may be expressed on earth in human life, as it is in the heavens."
