Aleister Crowley is one of the most misunderstood individuals of his time. His philosophy challenged orthodoxy for the sake of Love and True Will. To this day, his message continues to be warped to by those it challenges. In researching Crowley and reading some of books, I have found his message to be one of truth and light. I strongly encourage the open minded exploration of Crowley's works. Here is a small sampling of quotes to get you started!
Indubitably, magic is one of the subtlest and most difficult of the sciences and arts. There is more opportunity for errors of comprehension, judgment and practice than in any other branch of physics.
The people who have really made history are the martyrs.
Part of the public horror of sexual irregularity so-called is due to the fact that everyone knows himself essentially guilty.
The joy of life consists in the exercise of one's energies, continual growth, constant change, the enjoyment of every new experience. To stop means simply to die. The eternal mistake of mankind is to set up an attainable ideal.
Modern morality and manners suppress all natural instincts, keep people ignorant of the facts of nature and make them fighting drunk on bogey tales.
Falsehood is invariably the child of fear in one form or another.
Every one interprets everything in terms of his own experience. If you say anything which does not touch a precisely similar spot in another man's brain, he either misunderstands you, or doesn't understand you at all.
The Way of Mastery is to break all the rules—but you have to know them perfectly before you can do this; otherwise you are not in a position to transcend them.
Truth! Truth! Truth! crieth the Lord of the Abyss of Hallucinations.
