Blavatsky, H. P.

"When to the Permanent is sacrificed the Mutable, the prize is thine: the drop returneth whence it came. The Open Path leads to the changeless change - Non-Being, the glorious state of Absoluteness, the Bliss past human thought."

"The appearance and disappearance of the Universe are pictured as an outbreathing and inbreathing of the Great Breath which is eternity."

"The Lamp burns bright when wick and oil are clean."

"If thou would'st have that stream of hard-earn'd knowledge, of Wisdom heaven-born, remain sweet running waters, thou should'st not leave it to become a stagnant pond."
