Chapter 3—Dangers in Psychology . Satan a Student of the Mind—For thousands of years Satan has been experimenting upon the properties of the human mind, and he has learned to know it well. By his subtle workings in these last days he is linking the human mind with his own, imbuing it with his thoughts; and he is doing this work in so deceptive a manner that those who accept his guidance know not that they are being led by him at his will. The great deceiver hopes so to confuse the minds of men and women that none but his voice will be heard.— Letter 244, 1907{1MCP 18.1}

Satan studerer sindet. - I tusindvis år har Satan eksperimenteret med menneskesindets egenskaber, og han har lært at kende det godt. Ved hans hårfine gerninger i disse sidste dage, har han kædet menneskesindet sammen med sit eget, gennemsyret det med sine tanker; og han gør dette arbejde på en så bedragerisk måde at dem, som accepterer hans vejledning ikke ved, at de ledes af ham, af hans vilje. Den store bedrager håber at forvirre mænds og kvinders sind, at ingen andre stemmer end hans, vil blive hørt. - Brev 244, 1907. (MM 111.)
