  Best known of all Katipunan texts, the only document of any length set in print by the Katipunan prior to August 1896 that is known to be still extant, served as the primary lessons for the members of the Katipunan
• Ang Kartilya ng Katipunan ay may labin-apat (14) na puntos
• Ang Kartilya ng Katipunan: 'Ang kabuhayang hindi ginugugol sa isang malaki at banal na kadahilanan ay kahoy na walang lilim, kundi man damong makamandag.'
• Ang Kartilya ng Katipunan: 'Ang gawang magaling na nagbubuhat sa pagpipita sa sarili at hindi sa talagang nasang gumawa ng kagalingan, ay di kabaitan.'
• Ang Kartilya ng Katipunan: 'Ang tunay na kabanalan ay ang pagkakawang-gawa, ang pag-ibig sa kapwa at ang isukat ang bawat kilos, gawa't pangungusap sa talagang Katuwiran.'
• Ang Kartilya ng Katipunan: 'Maitim man o maputi ang kulay ng balat, lahat ng tao'y magkakapantay; mangyayaring ang isa'y higtan sa dunong, sa yaman, sa ganda; ngunit di mahihigtan sa pagkatao.'
• Ang Kartilya ng Katipunan: 'Ang may mataas na kalooban, inuuna ang puri kaysa pagpipita sa sarili; ang may hamak na kalooban, inuuna ang pagpipita sa sarili kaysa puri.'
• Ang Kartilya ng Katipunan: 'Sa taong may hiya, salita'y panunumpa.'
• Ang Kartilya ng Katipunan: 'Huwag mong sayangin ang panahon; ang yamang nawala'y mangyayaring magbalik; ngunit panahong nagdaan na'y di na muli pang magdadaan.'
• Ang Kartilya ng Katipunan: 'Ipagtanggol mo ang inaapi at kabakahin ang umaapi.'
• Ang Kartilya ng Katipunan: 'Ang taong matalino'y ang may pag-iingat sa bawat sasabihin, at matutong ipaglihim ang dapat ipaglihim.'
