More quotes by Anton Szandor LaVey
Why should I not hate mine enemies―if I love them does that not place me at their mercy?
Anton Szandor LaVey
The ecclesiastical description of Hell is that of a horrible place of fire and torment in Dante's Inferno, and in northern climes, it was thought to be an icy cold region, a giant refrigerator.
Anton Szandor LaVey
I don't drink much anymore, because it's supposedly not good for me. I still have gallons of it around though. I smell the cork and do a lot of wishing.
Anton Szandor LaVey
Satan has been the best friend the Church has ever had, as He has kept it in business all these years!
Anton Szandor LaVey
One of the keys to success is an unflinching belief that there are no rules. Anyone who's ever succeeded has gone on that premise not buying established procedures, business or otherwise. The naysayers are inevitably left behind amid shouts of 'it cannot be done' and should not be done'.
Anton Szandor LaVey
Definition of Good and Evil: Good is what you like. Evil is what you don't like.

Anton Szandor LaVey
The Satanist realizes that man, and the action and reaction of the universe, is responsible for everything, and doesn't mislead himself into thinking that someone cares.
Anton Szandor LaVey
Unfortunately for a multitude of occultists, humor is a rare ingredient in their lives. In fact it is their very lack of humor that has impelled them into the arcane and esoteric.
Anton Szandor LaVey
Yeah, well, I'm crazy, but I'm not stupid, hopefully. And I think we're all a bit crazy if we do anything that's deviant. I've studied a great deal on deviance and aberrant behavior. Most of the interesting people I've ever met have been deviant in one form or another.
Anton Szandor LaVey
To the Maker the archetype, the self-sustainer, human interaction is usually a waste of the most precious thing in his vital existance: time.
Anton Szandor LaVey
There are many who would take my time. I shun them. There are some who share my time. I am entertained by them.
Anton Szandor LaVey
Satanism represents kindness to those who deserve it instead of love wasted on ingrates!
Anton Szandor LaVey
Those that would say Satanist would like to kill animal's, sacrifice animals I would say they would make ideal animal sacrifices, I love animals and animals have always been part of me.
Anton Szandor LaVey
ALL religions of a spiritual nature are inventions of man. He has created an entire system of gods with nothing more than his carnal brain. Just because he has an ego, and cannot accept it, he has to externalize it into some great spiritual device which he calls God.
Anton Szandor LaVey
I dont crave companionship. It stands in my way. I live for pleasure. There are few persons who can give me as much pleasure as those acts I perform myself. I would rather create pleasure according to my own whim than be subjected to the whims of others.
Anton Szandor LaVey
Religions are easy to invent. Most traditional religions have little or nothing to do with reality, are dependent on obfuscation, interpretation, guilt, and unreasoning faith.
Anton Szandor LaVey
Magic is never totally scientifically explainable, but science has always been, at one time or another, considered magic.
Anton Szandor LaVey
The seven deadly sins of the Christian Church are: greed, pride, envy, anger, gluttony, lust, and sloth. Satanism advocates indulging in each of these sins as they all lead to physical, mental, or emotional gratification.
