More quotes by Aleister Crowley
He shall fall down into a pit called Because, and there he shall perish with the dogs of reason.
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
The first task of the Magician in every ceremony is therefore to render his Circle absolutely impregnable.
Aleister Crowley
Their false compassion is called compassion and their false understanding is called understanding, for this is their most potent spell.
Aleister Crowley
Falsehood is invariably the child of fear in one form or another.
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
The Quest of the Holy Grail, the Search for the Stone of the Philosophers-by whatever name we choose to call the Great Work-is therefore endless. Success only opens up new avenues of brilliant possibility.
Aleister Crowley
Chinese civilisation is so systematic that wild animals have been abolished on principle.
Aleister Crowley
Every incarnation that we remember must increase our comprehension of ourselves as who we are.
Aleister Crowley
Modern morality and manners suppress all natural instincts, keep people ignorant of the facts of nature and make them fighting drunk on bogey tales.
Aleister Crowley
Every one interprets everything in terms of his own experience. If you say anything which does not touch a precisely similar spot in another man's brain, he either misunderstands you, or doesn't understand you at all.
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
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
Love is a virtue it grows stronger and purer and less selfish by applying it to what it loathes but theft is a vice involving the slave-idea that one's neighbor is superior to oneself.
Aleister Crowley
The most delicious sensation of all is the re-birth of healthy human love. Spring coming back to Earth!
Aleister Crowley
For I am divided for love's sake, for the chance of union.
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
Morality can muddle mystical understanding and virtue is only necessary in so far as it favours success. All wisdom must be encompassed in order to achieve enlightenment.
Aleister Crowley
To read a newspaper is to refrain from reading something worth while. The first discipline of education must therefore be to refuse resolutely to feed the mind with canned chatter.
Aleister Crowley
We can no longer assert any single proposition, unless we guard ourselves by enumerating countless conditions which must be assumed.
Aleister Crowley
