Within this Dionysian Pagan Quote journal, John Auletta has expressed his world views, worldly spirituality and wisdom in the essence of Quotes, Adages, Metaphoric wisdom, and Poetry in hopes to inspire the Dionysian Pagan community in a way that his words embody the beauty and knowledge of the ancient ways (Technitai Dionusou). His unique word play evokes a mental picture, you might say that his Quotes, Jewels, Adages and Poetry embody the phrase 'a Mask is worth a thousand Faces.'

However, the majority of other Quotes are original created by him. You can say that this book is a Dionysian testament of his desires, passing thoughts, wisdom and beliefs in forms of beautiful Quotes, Esoteric Adages, Prayers and Erotic Poetry. He tries to express things that are inexpressible.Guaranteed, You'll come to know Dionysus and His many aspects through the Dramatic Arts of John Auletta's wisdom.

A Dedication
This book is a dedication to the God Dionysus. The first part of the book is dedicated to quotes both by the author and others inspired by the god Dionysus. The second part of the book is poetry inspired by the deity. Last part is prayers dedicated to the god.
This is a book for someone who wants to dedicate themselves to this god. What you find useful will be up to you. There is no prescribed intimidation or elaborate rituals here. Nothing but a heartfelt connection to the god.
Along the way you will learn a bit about the god and about the author. Dionysus is a honed god.He is the god of many things. He is the god of intoxication, theater, frenzied ecstasy and the vine to name his various attributes . Getting intoxicated on booze or anything else in his name is one way to honor him.
Dionysus was the son of Zeus and a human princess named Semele. She may have been worshipped as a goddess at one point. Hera, zeus’s wife was always jealous of Zeus’s lovers and so she set out to have him destroyed and the Titans were in on it. To keep him alive Dionysus was raised on Mount Nysa and cared for by maenads or rather female devoted to the god. Eventually the titans found him and killed him. Zeus in his anger fried them all with electric bolts. From the ashes of the titans and Dionysus humanity was formed. Hence we are part titan and part Dionysus. From Dionysus remaining heart he was reconstituted.
John Philip Auletta can claim descent from the Ptolemies. They were dedicated to Dionysus and may have descended from the god. Auletta Comes from a Greek cognate pertaining to Dionysus. He was also a Gang member serving life sentences for a murder spree by his gang. The incarceration has forced him to go inside himself. In the prison he misses being able to go out into the wood an Commune with his god Along with certain refreshments.
