Eliphas Levi, the French Magus, stated:
As an erudite Kabbalistic book, all combinations of which reveal the harmonies preexisting between signs. letters, and numbers, the practical value of the Tarot is truly and above all marvelous. A prisoner devoid of books, had he only a Tarot of which he knew how to make use, could, in a few years, acquire a universal science, and converse with an unequalled doctrine and inexhaustible eloquence.”
