• El secreto de la Masonería, como el secreto de la vida, sólo puede ser conocido por aquellos que lo buscan, lo sirven, lo viven. No se puede pronunciar; sólo se puede sentir y actuar. Es, de hecho, un secreto a voces, y cada hombre lo conoce según su búsqueda y su capacidad. Como todas las cosas que merece la pena conocer, nadie puede conocerla por otro y ningún hombre puede conocerla solo.

  William Howard Taft

• One thing and only one thing a Masonic Lodge can give its members which they can get nowhere else in the world. That one thing is Masonry.

• The scientist is a practical man and his are practical (i.e., practically attainable) aims. He does not seek the ultimate but the proximate. He does not speak of the last analysis but rather of the next approximation. His are not those beautiful structures so delicately designed that a single flaw may cause the collapse of the whole. The scientist builds slowly and with a gross but solid kind of masonry. If dissatisfied with any of his work, even if it be near the very foundations, he can replace that part without damage to the remainder.

  Gilbert N. Lewis

• We have our little theory on all human and divine things. Poetry, the workings of genius itself, which, in all times, with one or another meaning, has been called Inspiration, and held to be mysterious and inscrutable, is no longer without its scientific exposition. The building of the lofty rhyme is like any other masonry or bricklaying: we have theories of its rise, height, decline and fall -- which latter, it would seem, is now near, among all people.

• I had never been in charge of anything. I'd always worked for someone. I worked for a furniture warehouse. I did masonry. I always had a boss yelling at me. So I'd never been in charge of an organization.

• Masonry was not made to divide men, but to unite them, leaving each man free to think his own thoughts and fashion his own system of ultimate truth. All its emphasis rests upon two extremely simple and profound principles, love of God and love of man.

• La Masonería es una institución demasiado grande para haber sido creada en un día, y mucho menos por unos pocos hombres, sino que fue una lenta evolución a través de mucho tiempo, desplegando su belleza a medida que crecía. De hecho, fue como una de sus propias catedrales que una generación de constructores forjó y desapareció, y otra siguió, hasta que, en medio de las vicisitudes del tiempo y el cambio, de la decadencia y el renacimiento, la orden misma se convirtió en un templo de Libertad y Fraternidad.

• The secrecy of Masonry is an honorable secrecy; any good man may ask for her secrets; those who are worthy will receive them. To give them to those who do not seek, or who are not worthy, would but impoverish the Fraternity and enrich not those who received them.

• To enlarge the sphere of social happiness is worthy of the benevolent design of a Masonic institution; and it is most fervently to be wished, that the conduct of every member of the fraternity, as well as those publications, that discover the principles which actuate them, may tend to convince mankind that the grand object of Masonry is to promote the happiness of the human race.

• Masonry aims at the promotion of morality and higher living by the cultivation of the social side of man, the rousing in him of the instincts of charity and love of his kind. It rests surely on the foundation of the brotherhood of man and the fatherhood of God.

• 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.

• Los Grados Azules no son más que el atrio exterior... del templo. Parte de los símbolos se muestran allí al iniciado, pero se le engaña intencionadamente mediante una falsa interpretación. No se pretende que los entienda, sino que imagine que los entiende...La verdadera explicación está reservada a los Adeptos, los Príncipes de la Masonería (los de los grados 32 y 33)
