Aleister Crowley Diary Entry

Friday, 10 April 1931

 

 

Painting Conscientous Nude.

     

Gertrude (Howe—cousin of president Hoover) to lunch. Opus[1] really excited. Jesus Christ! In this God-awful country one has to sleep with one’s penis under one’s pillow!

     

P.S. Slept like a hawg 4 to 7.30 despite Fra Frosch to find the Old Woman come to sew my winding sheet.

     

Louise [Louise Aschaetzsch]—as usual. With strong intention. Note. French for “I think I must go home now” is “Espece d’andouille, fuis-moi ninette, nom de Dieu!”
