Perpetual Surprise.

 

 

Aleister Crowley, back after long wanderings abroad, started to tell us about black magic. And expecting a Very Great Deal—we got absolutely nothing. One felt he could have told us a little more than that!

 

     I liked his remark: “What is magic to-day is science to-morrow.” And also that aside that the world crisis is supposed “to be due to my sinister activities.”

     

Crowley has a thin, wiry voice and a look of complete and perpetual surprise.
