More from Aleister Crowley

"As soon as you put men together, they somehow sink, corporately, below the level of the worst of the individuals composing it."
"Intolerance is evidence of impotence."
"The true religion is the religion of love."
"Success is your proof: argue not; convert not; talk not overmuch!"
About Aleister Crowley (1875-1947)
English occultist who founded Thelema, wrote The Book of the Law (1904), and was branded 'the wickedest man in the world' by the British press. Closely associated with W.B. Yeats (fellow Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn member who came to despise him). For an intellectual contrast, see G.K. Chesterton, English Christian apologist and Father Brown author — Chesterton and Crowley were Edwardian London contemporaries arguing for opposite metaphysical systems — Chesterton's restored-Christianity rationalism is the precise opposite of Crowley's 'Do what thou wilt' Thelema.
