I feel that what is probably the greatest enemy of longevity is popularity, and most people die of popularity.
Anton Szandor LaVey
Image
Pride is great up to the point you begin to throw out the baby with the bathwater. The rule of Satanism is: if it works for you, great. When it stops working for you, when you've painted yourself into a corner and the only way out is to say, I'm sorry, I made a mistake, I wish we could compromise somehow, then do it.

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.

Good news is only really good to those directly involved. Most people lead such futile and useless lives that only bad news makes them feel better. If not better, certainly gooder. If one cannot gain recognition for anything else, he can rest well with the assurance that he is good, which in most case equates with right.

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'.
