Truth! Truth! Truth! crieth the Lord of the Abyss of Hallucinations
Aleister Crowley

The average man cannot believe that an artist may be as serious and highminded an observer of life as the professed man of science.
Aleister Crowley
Image
I was not content to just believe in Satan. I wanted to be his chief or staff.
Aleister Crowley
