We Stand Above by Aleister Crowley in International, Dec 1917.

“‘Battle, murder, and sudden death’ is excellent sport, and it is extremely necessary at this moment. The excretory system of nature, pestilence, has been constipated by the misguided efforts of medicine and hygiene.” [via]

Consider also:

  1. “We had to get rid of the surplus population, and we chose our own foolish way instead of Nature’s wise way. So not a word against war!”
  2. “Now, with regard to German atrocities, they may be perhaps a little more systematic than atrocities on the other side; but that is evidence of more system, not of more ferocity.”
  3. “The Virgin of Eternity lies supine at thy mercy, and thou art Pan!”
  4. “Again she saith: I give unimaginable joys on earth, certainty, not faith, while in life, upon death. This thou hast known.”
  5. “THIS paper is not primarily political. So far as it is so, it is and will be loyal; but it will resent the thesis that in order to be loyal one must be insane.”
