    "The Satanist decides over his own life and death and prefers to go with a smile on his lips when he has reached his peak in life, when he has accomplished everything, and aims to transcend this earthly existence. But it is completely un-Satanic to end ones own life because one is sad or miserable. The Satanist dies strong, not by age, disease or depression, and he chooses death before dishonor. Death is the orgasm of life."

  9. i would add to this..

    Who was it who said, "Blessed is the
    man who has found his work"?
    Whoever it was he had the right idea
    in his mind. Mark you, he says his
    work--not somebody else's work. The
    work that is really a man's own work
    is play and not work at all. Cursed is
    the man who has found some other
    man's work and cannot lose it. When
    we talk about the great workers of
    the world we really mean the great
    players of the world. The fellows who
    groan and sweat under the weary
    load of toil that they bear never can
    hope to do anything great. How can
    they when their souls are in a ferment
    of revolt against the employment of
    their hands and brains? The product of
    slavery, intellectual or physical, can
    never be great

    -Mark Twain (again) :)
