Hermetic quote Muir Gideon the Ninth super obsessed with tomes

Consider also:

  1. Demian
  2. “[Concerning the invisible god] some say that he is Aapep when he riseth up with a head bearing upon it [the feather of] Maat (Truth). But others say that he is Horus when he riseth up with two heads, whereon one beareth [the feather of] Maat, and the other [the symbol of] wickedness. He bestoweth wickedness on him that worketh wickedness, and right and truth upon him that followeth righteousness and truth.”
  3. “Importantly, he also encourages us to remember that this deity is really just one reflection of the divine. If we lose sight of this, we risk overly identifying with a partial force, rather than the one spiritual star in our sight—the HGA.”
  4. “Don’t look at her blood, or lick her bones, or do any of the shit necromancers lie and say they don’t do the moment two of them get nasty.”
  5. “It’s not about intellectual prowess, it’s not about true and false, it’s pure release. It’s your life night and day free of grief: Dionysos’ gift.”
