ΚΕΦΑΛΗ ΛΕ Venus of Milo in Liber CCCXXXIII, The Book of Lies by Aleister Crowley.

“Life is as ugly and necessary as the female body.” [via]

Consider also:

  1. “Death is as beautiful and necessary as the male body.”
  2. “Take me, who will!”
  3. Folktales from the Scottish Highlands — June 2023–April 2024, Edinburgh and/or Glasgow, UK (AB, SQ, SS ??)
  4. “The title ‘Venus of Milo’ is an argument in support of paragraphs 1 and 2, it being evident from this statement that the female body becomes beautiful in so far as it approximates to the male.”
  5. “The soul is beyond male and female as it is beyond Life and Death.”
