Crowley Claimed

Famous quotes containing the words crowley and/or claimed:

    When one walks, one is brought into touch first of all with the essential relations between one’s physical powers and the character of the country; one is compelled to see it as its natives do. Then every man one meets is an individual. One is no longer regarded by the whole population as an unapproachable and uninteresting animal to be cheated and robbed.
    —Aleister Crowley (1875–1947)

    I fear it is the effect of this ordinance to clothe Jesus with an authority which he never claimed and which distracts the mind of the worshipper.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
