Aleister Crowley Diary Entry Tuesday, 27 January 1931
Note on primitive fear. The WALL is the sacred object. Hence debauch—to go out of doors—is identical in German. Ausschweiffung. Also, to come in is to be a burglar—Einbrecher. One must not cross (?) that wall! It is the fear of all activity that lies behind Philistinism. (Note also “runagate” (?))
? Is “sors”—luck—that which “comes out” in an augury also connected with this idea of danger, or at best chance, if one goes out of doors.
