1656 T. Blount Glossographia Thelemite, a libertine, one that does what he list.
1908 Nation 24 Oct. 144/1 We will..take our oath to observe the Thelemite rule of ‘Do what thou wilt’, because, as its founder said, ‘men that are free, well-born, well-bred, and conversant in honest companies have naturally an instinct and spur that prompts them unto virtuous actions’.

Paradoxically, no one can create or contribute anything original, or bring more to life than he takes from it, unless he is already a Thelemite.

The artist, the scientist,..the poet, is such only to the degree that he expresses his true will.
