Consider also:

  1. “it is human nature to seek simple solutions to complex problems”
  2. “the dirty rituals of sanity”
  3. “The philosophy of the ruling minority in Nineteen Eighty-Four is a sadism which has been carried to its logical conclusion by going beyond sex and denying it.”
  4. “If only to keep the supply of food and books flowing in, I would have to fake some sort of participation in a human environment that had never really made much sense.”

The aspirant should discover for himself what elements are lacking to the perfection of his being are required to make him a complete expression of the Universe. He should then make it his business to infiltrate himself in all possible ways with this complementary idea so that there is ultimately no element of his being which is not completely satisfied by intimate union with each & every other idea conceivable.”
  • “… the Law of Thelema … admits that each member of the human race is unique, sovereign and responsible only to himself. In this way it is the logical climax of the idea of democracy.

I use affiliate links on this blog when possible. Affiliate links include Amazon, Bookshop, Abebooks; and less frequently Powell's and DriveThruRPG. I may earn a small commission if you click through and make purchases.

I run ads on this site to help pay the bills and keep the lights on, including Google, Amazon, and, a scrappy indie network, ComicAd. If you use an ad blocker, consider becoming an ongoing supporter on Patreon, Bandcamp, or Ko-Fi to chip in and continue guilt free.

Some images on this site are created using AI/ML generators (MidJourney and Dall-E) when posts otherwise wouldn't have pictures or they seem fun to me to add.
