More quotes by 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
It's no good trying to teach people who need to be taught.
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
It is necessary that we stop, once for all, this ignorant meddling with other people's business. Each individual must be left free to follow his own path.
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
Love is the only principle which makes life tolerable.
Aleister Crowley
Falsehood is invariably the child of fear in one form or another.
Aleister Crowley
I slept with faith and found a corpse in my arms on awakening I drank and danced all night with doubt and found her a virgin in the morning.
Aleister Crowley
I was not content to just believe in Satan. I wanted to be his chief or staff.
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
Sex is the sacred song of the soul Sex is the sanctuary of Self.
Aleister Crowley
Destiny is an absolutely definite and inexorable ruler. Physical ability and moral determination count for nothing. It is impossible to perform the simplest act when the gods say no. I have no idea how they bring pressure to bear on such occasions I only know that it is irresistible.
Aleister Crowley
There is only one really safe, mild, harmless beverage and you can drink as much of that as you like without running the slightest risk, and what you say when you want it is, 'Garcon! Un Pernod!'
Aleister Crowley
For I am divided for love's sake, for the chance of union.
Aleister Crowley
It is necessary, in this world, to be made of harder stuff than one's environment.
Aleister Crowley
Indubitably, magic is one of the subtlest and most difficult of the sciences and arts. There is more opportunity for errors of comprehension, judgment and practice than in any other branch of physics.
Aleister Crowley
Since all things are God, in all things thou seest just so much of God as thy capacity affordeth thee.
Aleister Crowley
We can no longer assert any single proposition, unless we guard ourselves by enumerating countless conditions which must be assumed.
Aleister Crowley
It would be unwise to condemn as irrational the practice of devouring the heart and liver of an adversary while yet warm. For the highest spiritual working one must choose that victim which contains the greatest and purest force a male child of perfect innocence and high intelligence is the most satisfactory.
Aleister Crowley
Repeal all laws which assume that mankind is a herd of cattle
