Aleister Crowley
Here again, there is no tabulation for us it is left to sacrifice literary charm, and even some accuracy, in order to bring out the one great point. The cause of human sectarianism is not lack of sympathy in thought, but in speech and this it is our not unambitious design to remedy.
Aleister Crowley

Aleister Crowley
Inevitably anyone with an independent mind must become 'one who resists or opposes authority or established conventions': a rebel. If enough people come to agree with, and follow, the Rebel, we now have a Devil. Until, of course, still more people agree. And then, finally, we have --- Greatness.
Aleister Crowley
Repeal all laws which assume that mankind is a herd of cattle
Aleister Crowley
I've written this to keep from crying. But I am crying, only the tears won't come.
Aleister Crowley
I was not content to just believe in Satan. I wanted to be his chief or staff.
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
