Without the Mob, There Is No Circus Quotes

“The AC was all about bringing all great subjects together. The AC wasn’t some dreary, stuffy set of academic tomes. The books were written in letters of fire. The pages burned. Smoke rose from the covers. These were polemics and artworks and extravaganzas in soaring rhetoric. They were assassinations, denunciations, and deconstructions. They were about martyrs, saints and sinners, angels and demons. They were incendiary. They were dynamite. They blew up everything. Shouldn’t books be detonations? We must not have the blind leading the blind and the bland leading the bland. We must cross the rivers of hell, and swear our most solemn oaths over the black waters of the Styx.”

“As ever, AC material is controversial, so no one of a sensitive disposition should access this work. You can’t say you haven’t been warned. We understood that for our message to be pure, it would entail shrinking our audience to almost zero, and we have more or less achieved that. When you tell the truth, you repulse everyone who follows the lie, and that’s close to almost all of humanity. Humanity loves the Lie. It worships it. It will have nothing else. The Truth is of no use to it at all. So, come inside and follow the final phase of this strangest of all stories. You’ll laugh, you’ll cry, you’ll be enraged, and many of you will storm off in a huff. At the end, you will either love us or hate us, and probably the latter. That’s how it ought to be. What could be worse than going out with a whimper rather than a bang?”

“The leader of Hyperianism never mentions Illuminism. Not ever. And that’s because, if he ever did, he would be exposed as a messenger for others rather than the Savior he wants to pose as. His own narcissism and Messiah Complex have destroyed him because they have made him constantly lie about the fundamental basis of Hyperianism. His egotism forbade him from accepting the role he was supposed to have – that of messenger. He didn’t have his own message; he was delivering the message of others. That’s the blunt fact of it. There is nobility and worth in the messenger role, but the leader of Hyperianism wasn’t satisfied. He was compelled to present himself as the Main Man. He never was, and never will be.”
