There are many things which swallow up men's thoughts while they live, which they will think little of when they are dying.

Myriads are buried in business and money matters and seem to neglect everything else but this world.

Cleanliness is next to Godliness, and had better come first. Purity means singleness. God is one. The Wand is not a Wand if it has something sticking to it which is not an essential part of itself. If you wish to invoke Venus, you do not succeed if there are traces of Saturn mixed up with it.
