"Now, therefore, I am known to ye by my name Nuit, and to him by a secret name which I will give him when at last he knoweth me. Since I am Infinite Space, and the Infinite Stars thereof, do ye also thus. Bind nothing! Let there be no difference made among you between any one thing & any other thing; for thereby there cometh hurt."
"Faith is a state of openness or trust. To have faith is to trust yourself to the water. When you swim you don't grab hold of the water, because if you do you will sink and drown. Instead you relax, and float. And the attitude of faith is the very opposite of clinging to belief, of holding on. In other words, a person who is fanatic in matters of religion, and clings to certain ideas about the nature of God and the universe, becomes a person who has no faith at all. Instead they are holding tight. But the attitude of faith is to let go, and become open to truth, whatever it might turn out to be.""And in my darkest moment, fetal and weeping; the moon tells me a secret - my confidant. As full and bright as I am, this light is not my own and a million light reflections pass over me. Its source is bright and endless, she resuscitates the hopeless, without her we are lifeless satellites drifting."'If you examine the highest poetry in light of common sense, you can only say that it is rubbish; and in actual fact you cannot so examine it at all, because there is something in poetry which is not in the words themselves. O Windy star blown sideways up the sky! True poetry is itself a magical spell which is key to the ineffable. With music this thesis is so obvious as hardly to need stating. Music has no expressed intellectual content whatever, and the sole test of music is its power to exalt the soul. It is then eveident that the composer is himself attempting to express in sensible form some such sublimities as are attained by those who practice Magick and Yoga as they should.""All government in essence, is tyranny. It matters not whether it is government by divine right or majority rule. In every instance its aim is the absolute subordination of the individual.""Today, a young man on acid realized that all matter is merely energy condensed to a slow vibration... that we are all one consciousness experiencing itself subjectively. There's no such thing as death, life is only a dream, and we're the imagination of ourselves. Here's Tom with the weather.""I'm not really interested in music; music is just a means of creating a magical state. One employs magic every day. Every thought is a magical act. You don't sit down and work spells and all that hokey stuff. It's simply experimentation with different states of consciousness and mind control.""My feeling about anarchism... it is a tendency in the history of human thought & action which seeks to identify coercive, authoritarian, & hierarchic structures of all kinds & to challenge their legitimacy & if they cannot justify their legitimacy, which is quite commonly the case, to work to undermine them & expand the scope of freedom.""Heroism on command, senseless violence, and all the loathsome nonsense that goes by the name of patriotism - how passionately I hate them!""The bee tradition is one of the great feminine mysteries. The honeybee represents sacred sexuality. So we don't go to the garden of original sin, but we go to the garden of original sinsuality. My way of preserving the earth from becoming a wasteland is to eat from the forbidden fruit. "
