More quotes by Aleister Crowley
How right politicians are to look upon their constituents as cattle! Anyone who has any experience of dealing with any class as such knows the futility of appealing to intelligence, indeed to any other qualities than those of brutes.
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
What is it in absinthe that makes it a separate cult? The effects of its abuse are totally distinct from those of other stimulants. Even in ruin and in degradation it remains a thing apart: its victims wear a ghastly aureole all their own, and in their peculiar hell yet gloat with a sinister perversion of pride that they are not as other men.
Aleister Crowley
Happiness lies within one's self, and the way to dig it out is cocaine.
Aleister Crowley
I believe in one Gnostic and Catholic Church of Light, Life, Love and Liberty, the Word of whose Law is THELEMA .
Aleister Crowley
As soon as you put men together, they somehow sink, corporatively, below the level of the worst of the individuals composing it. Collect scholars on a club committee, or men of science on a jury all their virtues vanish, and their vices pop out, reinforced by the self-confidence which the power of numbers is bound to bestow.
Aleister Crowley
The eternal mistake of mankind is to set up an attainable ideal.
Aleister Crowley
For I am divided for love's sake, for the chance of union.
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
Magick is the science and art of causing change to occur in conformity with will.
Aleister Crowley
Love is the only principle which makes life tolerable.
Aleister Crowley
I'm a poet, and I like my lies the way my mother used to make them.
Aleister Crowley
I slept with faith and found a corpse in my arms on awakening I drank and danced all night with doubt and found her a virgin in the morning.
Aleister Crowley
The sin which is unpardonable is knowingly and wilfully to reject truth, to fear knowledge lest that knowledge pander not to thy prejudices.
Aleister Crowley
Initiation means the Journey Inwards: nothing is changed or can be changed but all is trulier understood with every step.
Aleister Crowley
The True Will is thus both determined by its equations, and free because those equation are simply its own name, spelt out fully.
Aleister Crowley
I am alone. There is no God where I am.
Aleister Crowley
The old spelling MAGICK has been adopted throughout in order to distinguish the Science of the Magi from all its counterfeits.
Aleister Crowley
If one were to take the bible seriously one would go mad. But to take the bible seriously, one must be already mad.
Aleister Crowley
The Way of Mastery is to break all the rules—but you have to know them perfectly before you can do this otherwise you are not in a position to transcend them.
Aleister Crowley
