Philosophy
Slater was a self-professed conservative who opposed drugs, promiscuity, and love magick. He criticised witches and pagans who indulged in drugs and sex magick. His blunt opinions made him unpopular. Despite his outward appearances/persona, he did not practice what he preached. Slater was known for keeping many lovers outside of his relationship with Buczynski.

Famous quotes containing the word philosophy:
“A philosophy can and must be worked out with the greatest rigour and discipline in the details, but can ultimately be founded on nothing but faith: and this is the reason, I suspect, why the novelties in philosophy are only in elaboration, and never in fundamentals.”
—T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
“A life-worshipper’s philosophy is comprehensive.... He is at one moment a positivist and at another a mystic: now haunted by the thought of death ... and now a Dionysian child of nature; now a pessimist and now, with a change of lover or liver or even the weather, an exuberant believer that God’s in his heaven and all’s right with the world.”
—Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)
“Of your philosophy you make no use
If you give place to accidental evils.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
