Attributed to Johann Adam Weishaupt:

1. “Above all, those who have experienced misfortune, not by mere accidents, but through some kind of injustice, that is to say, those that one can most certainly count amongst malcontents: those are the [people] that we must call into the bosom of [the Order] as into their asylum.” ²

2. [By far the most potent inducement to offer is the promise of power.] “The pupils are convinced that the Order will rule the world. Every member therefore becomes a ruler.” ¹
