More quotes by Anton Szandor LaVey
I break away from all conventions that do not lead to my earthly success and happiness.
Anton Szandor LaVey
It has been said the truth will make men free. The truth alone has never set anyone free. It is only DOUBT which will bring mental emancipation.
Anton Szandor LaVey

Anton Szandor LaVey

Anton Szandor LaVey
In this arid wilderness of steel and stone I raise up my voice that you may hear. To the East and to the West I beckon. To the North and to the South I show a sign proclaiming: Death to the weakling, wealth to the strong!

The TV set, or Satanic family altar, has grown more elaborate since the early 50s, from the tiny, fuzzy screen to huge ‘entertainment centers’ covering entire walls with several TV monitors.

Anton Szandor LaVey
If a guest in your lair annoys you, treat him cruelly and without mercy.
Anton Szandor LaVey
Satan represents indulgence, instead of abstinence! Satan represents vital existence, instead of spiritual pipe dreams! Satan represents undefiled wisdom, instead of hypocritical self-deceit! Satan represents all of the so-called sins, as they all lead to physical, mental, or emotional gratification!
Anton Szandor LaVey
Magic is never totally scientifically explainable, but science has always been, at one time or another, considered magic.
Anton Szandor LaVey
Mysterious beings we seek from birth what does that mean to me? Something we seek, and as we age it becomes more elusive, yet our spirit remains willing, but our flesh grows weak.
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
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.
Anton Szandor LaVey
Be as a lion in the path. Be dangerous even in defeat.
Anton Szandor LaVey
How could you set yourself up as the most powerful institution on earth? You first find out what every man feels at least once a day, establish that as a sin, and set yourself up as the only institution capable of pardoning that sin.
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
Satanism is not a white light religion it is a religion of the flesh, the mundane, the carnal - all of which are ruled by Satan, the personification of the Left Hand Path.
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
