More quotes by Aldous Huxley
Good is a product of the ethical and spiritual artistry of individuals it cannot be mass-produced.
Aldous Huxley
Wherever we turn we find that the real obstacles to peace are human will and feeling, human convictions, prejudices, opinions. If we want to get rid of war we must get rid first of all of its psychological causes. Only when this has been done will the rulers of the nations even desire to get rid of the economic and political causes.
Aldous Huxley
There is no bad day that can’t be overcome by listening to a barbershop quartet. This is just truth, plain and simple.
Aldous Huxley
A bad book is as much of a labor to write as a good one, it comes as sincerely from the author's soul.
Aldous Huxley
Consciousness is only possible through change change is only possible through movement.
Aldous Huxley
A type of revolutionary novelty may be extremely beautiful in itself but, for the creatures of habit that we are, its very novelty tends to make it illegible, at any rate to begin with.
Aldous Huxley
When life appears to be working against you, when your luck is down, when the supposedly wrong people show up, or when you slip up and return to old, self-defeating habits, recognize the signs that you're out of harmony with intention.
Aldous Huxley
Words form the thread on which we string our experiences. [Therefore be careful how you interpret your life. Don't think or speak negatively lest your subconscious and others take you at your word and you are hung by your own tongue!]
Aldous Huxley
I think we have to prepare the mind in one way or another to accept the great uprush or downrush, whichever you like to call it, of the greater non-self.
Aldous Huxley
It is natural to believe in God when you're alone-- quite alone, in the night, thinking about death.
Aldous Huxley
A squat grey building of only thirty-four stories. Over the main entrance the words, CENTRAL LONDON HATCHERY AND CONDITIONING CENTRE, and, in a shield, the World State's motto, COMMUNITY, IDENTITY, STABILITY.
Aldous Huxley
Abused as we abuse it at present, dramatic art is in no sense cathartic it is merely a form of emotional masturbation.
Aldous Huxley
A physical shortcoming could produce a kind of mental excess. The process, it seemed, was reversible. Mental excess could produce, for its own purposes, the voluntary blindness and deafness of deliberate solitude, the artificial impotence of asceticism.
Aldous Huxley
Words are magical in the way they affect the minds of those who use them.
Aldous Huxley
Teaching is the last refuge of feeble minds with a classical education.
Aldous Huxley
The snapshots had become almost as dim as memories.
Aldous Huxley
I like being myself. Myself and nasty.
Aldous Huxley
We lie to ourselves in order that we may still have the excuse of ignorance, the alibi of stupidity and incomprehension, possessing which we can continue with a good conscience to commit and tolerate the most monstrous crimes.
Aldous Huxley
No Romeo-and-Juliet acts, no nonsense about Love with a large L, none of that popular song claptrap with its skies of blue, dreams come true, heaven with you. Just sensuality for its own sake.
Aldous Huxley
When one individual comes into intimate contact with another, she—or he, of course, as the case may be—must almost inevitably receive or inflict suffering.
Aldous Huxley
