Sex is the sacred song of the soul Sex is the sanctuary of Self.
Aleister Crowley
There are hardly half a dozen writers in England today who have not sold out to the enemy. Even when their good work has been a success, Mammon grips them and whispers: More money for more work.
Aleister Crowley
The conscience of the world is so guilty that it always assumes that people who investigate heresies must be heretics just as if a doctor who studies leprosy must be a leper. Indeed, it is only recently that science has been allowed to study anything without reproach.
Aleister Crowley
Love is the law, love under will.
Aleister Crowley
There is a splendour in my name hidden and glorious, as the sun of midnight is ever the son.
Aleister Crowley
We can no longer assert any single proposition, unless we guard ourselves by enumerating countless conditions which must be assumed.
Aleister Crowley
For I am divided for love's sake, for the chance of union.
Aleister Crowley
I've written this to keep from crying. But I am crying, only the tears won't come.
Aleister Crowley

Aleister Crowley
There are no standards of Right. Ethics is balderdash. Each Star must go on its own orbit. To hell with moral principle there is no such thing.
Aleister Crowley
I hardly ever talk- words seem such a waste, and they are none of them true. No one has yet invented a language from my point of view.
Aleister Crowley
Alas the Master so he sinks in death. But whoso knows the mystery of man Sees life and death as curves of the same plan
Aleister Crowley
Your friends will notice at once that glib vacuities fail to impress, and hate you, and tell lies about you. It's worth it.
Aleister Crowley
Practically, Science is true and Faith is foolish.
Aleister Crowley
30. If Will stops and cries Why, invoking Because, then Will stops an does naught. 31. If power asks why, then power is weakness.
Aleister Crowley
I was asked to memorise what I did not understand and, my memory being so good, it refused to be insulted in that manner.
Aleister Crowley
This Universe is a wild revel of atoms, men, and stars, each one a Soul of Light and Mirth, horsed on Eternity.
Aleister Crowley
The average man cannot believe that an artist may be as serious and highminded an observer of life as the professed man of science.
Aleister Crowley
The man who denounces life merely defines himself as the man who is unequal to it.
Aleister Crowley
A single ego is an absurdly narrow vantage point from which to view the world.
Aleister Crowley
