…IBER ALEPH VEL CXI 14 n De Somniis. e: Clavicula. (Of Dreams. V: The Key) HE Dream delightful is then a Pageant of the Fulfilment of the true Will, and the Nightmare a symbolic Battle between it and its Assailants in thyself. But there can be only one true Will, even as there can be only one proper Motion in any Body, no matter of how many Forces that Motion be the Resultant.

THE BOOK OF WISDOM OR FOLLY 3 g De Vita Corrigenda (Of Correcting Life) NOW, son, that the true Principle of Self-Control is Liberty. For we are born into a World which is in Bondage to Ideals; to them we are perforce fitted, even as the Enemies to the Bed of Procrustes. Each of us, as he grows, learns Repression of himself and his true Will. It is a lie, this folly against self: these Words are written in The Book of the Law. So therefore these Passions in ourselves which we understand to be Hindrances are not part of our True Will, but dise…

The acceptance of, or the deference to these malignant sex-tabus, has done incalculable harm and is still doing it. A sane, a natural and creative view of sex is of the first importance; for a destructive and distorted view, a Christian view, generates an evil pus which overflows upon the whole field of human thought and human activity, infecting with one malady after…
