More quotes by Aleister Crowley
Initiation means the Journey Inwards: nothing is changed or can be changed but all is trulier understood with every step.
Aleister Crowley
Don't talk for five minutes, there's a good chap! I've a strange feeling come over me--almost as if I were going to think!
Aleister Crowley
May the New Year bring you courage to break your resolutions early! My own plan is to swear off every kind of virtue, so that I triumph even when I fall!
Aleister Crowley
Those magicians who object to the use of blood, have endeavored to replace it with incense. But, the bloody sacrifice, though more dangerous, is more efficacious. And for nearly all purposes, human sacrifice is the best.
Aleister Crowley
I will interpret every phenomenon as a particular dealing of God with my soul
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
Repeal all laws which assume that mankind is a herd of cattle
Aleister Crowley
There is a splendour in my name hidden and glorious, as the sun of midnight is ever the son.
Aleister Crowley
Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the law.
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
The sot drinks, and is drunken: the coward drinks not, and shivers: the wise man, brave and free, drinks, and gives glory to the Most High God.
Aleister Crowley
Imagine listening to Beethoven with the prepossession that C is a good note and F a bad one yet this is exactly the stand point from which all uninitiates contemplate the universe. Obviously, they miss the music.
Aleister Crowley
I can imagine myself on my death-bed, spent utterly with lust to touch the next world, like a boy asking for his first kiss from a woman.
Aleister Crowley
Love stories are only fit for the solace of people in the insanity of puberty. No healthy adult human being can really care whether so-and-so does or does not succeed in satisfying his physiological uneasiness by the aid of some particular person or not.
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
People think that talking is a sign of thinking. It isn't, for the most part' on the contrary, it's a mechanical dodge of the body to relieve oneself of the strain of thinking, just as exercising the muscles helps the body to become temporarily unconscious of its weight, its pain, its weariness, and the foreknowledge of its doom.
Aleister Crowley
The most delicious sensation of all is the re-birth of healthy human love. Spring coming back to Earth!
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
I have been accused of being a ‘black magician.’ No more foolish statement was ever made about me. I despise the thing to such an extent that I can hardly believe in the existence of people so debased and idiotic as to practice it.
Aleister Crowley
Magic is real. And reality... it is magical.
