Aleister Crowley Diary Entry

Sunday, 4 August 1940

 

 

[H.M. THE QUEEN’S BIRTHDAY. Crowley crossed out.]

 

[I Ching Hexagram] 59.

     

Reading all day—"After many a Summer”[1] 4th or 5th time. This Buddhist postulate! It is the noble attitude of experience that confutes the unmanly twaddle of these “ausgekochtete” writers.

     

Over-worked myself into insomnia.

 

 

1—A novel by Aldous Huxley.
