More quotes by Aldous Huxley
Knowledge is an affair of symbols and is, all too often, a hindrance to wisdom, the uncovering of the self from moment to moment
Aldous Huxley
Reality cannot be ignored except at a price and the longer the ignorance is persisted in, the higher and more terrible becomes the price that must be paid.
Aldous Huxley
It takes two to make a murder. There are born victims, born to have their throats cut, as the cut-throats are born to be hanged.
Aldous Huxley
Back to culture. Yes, actually to culture. You can’t consume much if you sit still and read books.
Aldous Huxley
Man is hypnotized by the glitter of his own gadgetry
Aldous Huxley
Our kingdom go is the necessary and unavoidable corollary of 'Thy kingdom come.' For the more there is self, the less there is of God. The divine eternal fulness of life can be gained only by those who have deliberately lost the partial, separative life of craving and self-interest, of egocentric thinking, feeling, wishing, and acting.
Aldous Huxley
In actual life a downward movement may sometimes be made the beginning of an ascent.
Aldous Huxley
[I am not] the captain of my soul I am only its noisiest passenger.
Aldous Huxley
At their first appearance innovators have always been derided as fools and mad men.
Aldous Huxley
Every significant artist is a metaphysician, a propounder of beauty-truths and form-theories.
Aldous Huxley
Man is unique in organizing the mass murder of his own species.
Aldous Huxley
God in the safe and Ford on the shelves.
Aldous Huxley
Addiction is an increasing desire for an act that gives less and less satisfaction
Aldous Huxley
You all remember, I suppose, that beautiful and inspired saying of Our Ford's: History is bunk.
Aldous Huxley
Music is an ocean, but the repertory is hardly even a lake it is a pond.
Aldous Huxley
I'm claiming the right to be unhappy.
Aldous Huxley
Somewhere in the rain, there will always be an abandoned dog that prevents you from being happy.
Aldous Huxley
Impulse arrested spills over, and the flood is feeling, the flood is passion, the flood is even madness: it depends on the force of the current, the height and strength of the barrier. The unchecked stream flows smoothly down its appointed channels into a calm well being.
Aldous Huxley
Like every man of sense and good feeling, I abominate work.
Aldous Huxley
The snapshots had become almost as dim as memories.
Aldous Huxley
