More quotes by Aldous Huxley
I like being myself. Myself and nasty.
Aldous Huxley
If it were not for the intellectual snobs who pay - in solid cash - the arts would perish with their starving practitioners. Let us thank heaven for hypocrisy.
Aldous Huxley
Words can be like X-rays if you use them properly -- they’ll go through anything. You read and you’re pierced.
Aldous Huxley
There's only one effectively redemptive sacrifice, the sacrifice of self-will to make room for the knowledge of God.
Aldous Huxley
Peace is a necessary condition of spirituality, no less than an inevitable result of it.
Aldous Huxley
Most ignorance is vincible ignorance. We don't know because we don't want to know.
Aldous Huxley
For the born traveller, travelling is a besetting vice. Like other vices, it is imperious, demanding its victim's time, money, energy and the sacrifice of comfort.
Aldous Huxley
Words play an enormous part in our lives and are therefore deserving of the closest study.
Aldous Huxley
The investigation of nature is an infinite pasture-ground where all may graze, and where the more bite, the longer the grass grows, the sweeter is its flavor, and the more it nourishes.
Aldous Huxley
Those who meant well behaved in the same way as those who meant badly.
Aldous Huxley
Several excuses are always less convincing than one.
Aldous Huxley
The pleasures of ignorance are as great, in their way, as the pleasures of knowledge.
Aldous Huxley
The ductless glands secrete among other things our moods, our aspirations, our philosophy of life.
Aldous Huxley
Every civilization is, among other things, an arrangement for domesticating the passions and setting them to do useful work.
Aldous Huxley
Maybe this world is another planet's Hell.
Aldous Huxley
An ideal is merely the projection, on an enormously enlarged scale, of some aspect of personality.
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
We don't want to change. Every change is a menace to stability.
Aldous Huxley
Man's life on earth has only one end and purpose: to identify himself with his eternal Self and so to come to unitive knowledge of the Divine Ground.
Aldous Huxley
A democracy which makes or even effectively prepares for modern, scientific war must necessarily cease to be democratic. No country can be really well prepared for modern war unless it is governed by a tyrant, at the head of a highly trained and perfectly obedient bureaucracy.
Aldous Huxley
