„A kdyby i bylo pravda, že Bůh svěřil Adamovi vládu nad všemi zvířaty, která se pohybují po Zemi, tak nikde přece nestojí, že mu Pán poručil zvířata pojídat, nebo pro svou zábavu a sport mučit.“

“The purpose of this book is exactly expressed in its title, “The Key to Theosophy,” and needs but few words of explanation. It is not a complete or exhaustive text-book of Theosophy, but only a key to unlock the door that leads to the deeper study.”

“The highest degree of knowledge. To become a Buddha one has to break through the bondage of sense and personality; to acquire a complete perception of the REAL SELF and learn not to separate it from all otherselves; to learn by experience the utter unreality of all phenomena of the visible Kosmos foremost of all; to reach a complete detachment from all that is evanescent and finite, and live while yet on Earth in the immortal and the everlasting alone, in a supreme state of holiness.”

“In Occultism one who has reached the stage of Initiation, and become a Master in the science of Esoteric philosophy.”
