More quotes by Anton Szandor LaVey
There is no heaven, there is no hell, except here on Earth.
Anton Szandor LaVey
Life is the great indulgence - death the great abstinence. Therefore, make the most of life here and now!
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
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
Satanism represents kindness to those who deserve it instead of love wasted on ingrates!
Anton Szandor LaVey
Hate your enemy with a whole heart, and if a man smite you on one cheek, SMASH him on the other!
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
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
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!
Anton Szandor LaVey
Be as a lion in the path. Be dangerous even in defeat.
Anton Szandor LaVey
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.
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
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
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
A friend of mine who was a founding father of the Church of Satan, who later I compared notes with, said when he was a kid, he too managed to get into Sallys Nude Ranch, and in the corral he saw his Sunday school teacher!!! That was a real epiphany for him. From that moment on he was a Satanist.
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 is not always 'two sides to every issue.' That statement is a ridiculous slogan invoked by vested interests and perpetuated by minds of limited scope.
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
I visualize the day that tridents and pentagrams are thrust into the sky from church roofs instead of crosses.
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'.
