| Albert Pikeb: Boston, Massachusetts, USA, Dec 29, 1809 d: Washington, DC, USA, Apr 2, 1891 Albert Pike was an attorney, soldier, writer, and Freemason. Pike is the only Confederate military officer or figure to be honored with an outdoor statue in Washington, D.C. (in Judiciary Square). A Human Thought is an actual EXISTENCE, and a Force and Power, capable of acting upon and controlling matter as well as mind. A war for a great principle ennobles a nation. A war for commercial supremacy, upon some shallow pretext, is despicable. Action is greater than writing. A good man is a nobler object of contemplation than a great author. There are but two things worth living for: to do what is worthy of being written; and to write what is worthy of being read; and theBefore God manifested Himself, when all things were still hidden in Him... He began by forming an imperceptible point; that was His own thought. With this thought He then began to construct a mysterious and holy form... the Universe. But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him. God is a spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth. One man is equivalent to all Creation. One man is a World in miniature. The sovereignty of one's self over one's self is called Liberty.The universal medicine for the Soul is the Supreme Reason and Absolute Justice; for the mind, mathematical and practical Truth; for the body, the Quintessence, a combination of light and gold. War is a series of catastrophes which result in victory. What we have done for ourselves alone dies with us; what we have done for others and the world remains and is immortal. |
