More quotes by Aleister Crowley

Aleister Crowley
Intolerance is evidence of impotence.
Aleister Crowley
We place no reliance On virgin or pigeon Our Method is Science, Our Aim is Religion.
Aleister Crowley

Aleister Crowley

Aleister Crowley

Aleister Crowley
Every incarnation that we remember must increase our comprehension of ourselves as who we are.
Aleister Crowley
It is necessary, in this world, to be made of harder stuff than one's environment.
Aleister Crowley
Crime, folly, sickness and all phenomena must be contemplated with complete freedom from fear aversion or shame. Otherwise we shall fail to see accurately, and interpret intelligently in which case we shall be unable to outwit and outfight them.
Aleister Crowley
We must conquer life by living it to the full, and then we can go to meet death with a certain prestige.
Aleister Crowley
Men and women are not free to love decently until they have analyzed themselves completely and swept away every mystery from sex and this means the acquisition of a profound philosophical theory based on wide reading of anthropology and enlightened practice.
Aleister Crowley
Invoke often! Inflame thyself with prayer!
Aleister Crowley
Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the law.
Aleister Crowley
Indubitably, magic is one of the subtlest and most difficult of the sciences and arts. There is more opportunity for errors of comprehension, judgment and practice than in any other branch of physics.
Aleister Crowley
He shall fall down into a pit called Because, and there he shall perish with the dogs of reason.
Aleister Crowley
