More quotes by Aleister Crowley
Every intentional act is a magical act.
Aleister Crowley
Sit still. Stop thinking. Shut up. Get out! The first two of these instructions comprise the whole of the technique of Yoga. The last two are of a sublimity which it would be improper to expound in this present elementary stage.
Aleister Crowley
Paganism is wholesome because it faces the facts of life.
Aleister Crowley
Every incarnation that we remember must increase our comprehension of ourselves as who we are.
Aleister Crowley
You can only accomplish your object in life by complete disregard of the opinions of other people.
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
I've written this to keep from crying. But I am crying, only the tears won't come.
Aleister Crowley
This serpent, SATAN, is not the enemy of Man, but He who made Gods of our race, knowing Good and Evil He bade 'Know Thyself!' and taught Initiation.
Aleister Crowley
The absolute rule of the state shall be a function of the absolute liberty of each individual will.
Aleister Crowley
A burnt child dreads the fire.
Aleister Crowley
Black magic is not a myth. It is a totally unscientific and emotional form of magic, but it does get results — of an extremely temporary nature.
Aleister Crowley
It will be seen that the formula - 'Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law' has nothing to do with 'Do as you please.' It is much more difficult to comply with the Law of Thelema than to follow out slavishly a set of dead regulations.
Aleister Crowley
We can no longer assert any single proposition, unless we guard ourselves by enumerating countless conditions which must be assumed.
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
There are hardly half a dozen writers in England today who have not sold out to the enemy. Even when their good work has been a success, Mammon grips them and whispers: More money for more work.
Aleister Crowley
Acts which are essentially dishonourable must not be done they would be justified only by calm contemplation of their correctness in abstract cases.
Aleister Crowley
To train the mind to move with the maximum speed and energy, with the utmost possible accuracy in the chosen direction, and with the minimum of disturbance or friction. That is Magick. To stop the mind altogether. That is Yoga.
Aleister Crowley
The nails from a suicide's coffin, and the skull of the parricide, were of course no trouble for Vesquit never traveled without these household requisites.
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
A man who is doing his True Will has the inertia of the Universe to assist him.
