Image
Given the nature of spiders, webs are inevitable. And given the nature of human beings, so are religions. Spiders can't help making fly-traps, and men can't help making symbols. That's what the human brain is there for - the turn the chaos of given experience into a set of manageable symbols.

Aldous Huxley
Image
Thanks to words, we have been able to rise above the brutes and thanks to words, we have often sunk to the level of the demons.
Aldous Huxley
Image
Dying is almost the least spiritual of our acts, more strictly carnal even than the act of love. There are Death Agonies that are like the strainings of the Costive at stool.
Aldous Huxley
Image
Religion is always a patron of the arts, but its taste is by no means impeccable.
Aldous Huxley
Image
Grace is always sufficient, provided we are ready to cooperate with it. If we fail to do our share, but rather choose to rely on self-will and self-direction, we shall not only get no help from the graces bestowed on us, we shall actually make it impossible for further graces to be given.
Aldous Huxley
Image
So long as men worship the Caesars and Napoleons, Caesars and Napoleons will duly arise and make them miserable.
Aldous Huxley
Image
I'm claiming the right to be unhappy.
Aldous Huxley

The pleasures of ignorance are as great, in their way, as the pleasures of knowledge.
Aldous Huxley

Most loverspicture to themselves, in their mistresses, a secret reality, beyond and different from what they see every day. They are in love with somebody else--their own invention. And sometimes there is a secret reality and sometimes reality and appearance are the same. The discovery, in either case, is likely to cause a shock.
