More from Aleister Crowley
"This is my real bed-rock objection to the eastern systems. They decry all manly virtue as dangerous and wicked, and they look upon Nature as evil."
"One would go mad if one took the Bible seriously; but to take it seriously one must be already mad."
"The universe is a manifestation of the infinite mind."
"Sex is, directly or indirectly, the most powerful weapon in the armoury of the Magician; and precisely because there is no moral guide, it is indescribably dangerous."
"The soul is a flame of the eternal fire."
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.
