Opening and Closing

"The openings and closings are regarded as but so much casual formality devoid of interior purpose or meaning, whereas they are ceremonies of the highest instructiveness and rites with a distinctive purpose which should not be profaned by casual perfunctory performance or without understanding what they imply."

Walter Leslie Wilmshurst, On the Opening and Closing of the
Lodge, from The Meaning of Masonry
