L. Ron Hubbard on Crowley,
"the late Aleister Crowley, my very good friend"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q6fwzOYoAfY&feature=related
Hubbard : "Now, he could simply say, "I have action." A magician - the
magic
cults of the eighth, ninth, tenth, eleventh, twelfth centuries in the
Middle
East were fascinating. The only modern work that has anything to do with
them is a trifle wild in spots, but it's fascinating work in itself, and
that's work written by Aleister Crowley, the late Aleister Crowley, my
very
good friend. And he did himself a splendid piece of aesthetics built
around
those magic cults. It's very interesting reading to get hold of a copy of
a
book, quite rare, but it can be obtained. the Master Therion,
T-h-e-r-i-o-n,
The Master Therion by Aleister Crowley. He signs himself "The Beast"; "The
Mark of the Beast, 666." Very, very something or other."
