Aleister Crowley
Image
Paganism is wholesome because it faces the facts of life.
Aleister Crowley

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.

Aleister Crowley
Image
The customer is usually wrong, but statistics indicate that it doesn't pay to tell him so
Aleister Crowley
Image
To the eyes of a god, mankind must appear as a species of bacteria which multiply and become progressively virulent whenever they find themselves in a congenial culture, and whose activity diminishes until they disappear completely as soon as proper measures are taken to sterilize them.
Aleister Crowley
Image
When one walks, one is brought into touch first of all with the essential relations between one's physical powers and the character of the country one is compelled to see it as its natives do. Then every man one meets is an individual.
Aleister Crowley
Image
I do not want to father a flock, to be the fetish of fools and fanatics or the founder of a faith whose followers are content to echo my opinions. I want each man to cut his own way through the jungle.
Aleister Crowley
Image
Science is always discovering odd scraps of magical wisdom and making a tremendous fuss about its cleverness.
Aleister Crowley
Image
Since all things are God, in all things thou seest just so much of God as thy capacity affordeth thee.

I am the blue-lidded daughter of Sunset I am the naked brilliance of the voluptuous night-sky.
