More quotes by Aldous Huxley
The pleasures of ignorance are as great, in their way, as the pleasures of knowledge.
Aldous Huxley
The vast majority of human beings are not interested in reason or satisfied with what it teaches.
Aldous Huxley
The only consistent people are the dead
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
Experience teaches only the teachable.
Aldous Huxley
The lion will lay down with the lamb...but every morning they'll have to provide a new lamb. Maybe this world is another planet's hell.
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
The Alexander Technique gives us all things we have been looking for in a system of physical education: relief from strain due to maladjustment, and constant improvement in physical and mental health. We cannot ask for more from any system nor, if we seriously desire to alter human beings in a desirable direction, can we ask for any less.
Aldous Huxley
For [D.H.] Lawrence, existence was one continuous convalescence it was as though he were newly reborn from a mortal illness every day of his life. What these convalescent eyes saw, his most casual speech would reveal.
Aldous Huxley
Hinduism the perennial philosophy that is at the core of all religions.
Aldous Huxley
Wild inside raging, writhing—yes, writhing was the word, writhing with desire. But outwardly he was hopelessly tame outwardly—baa, baa, baa.
Aldous Huxley
Science is not enough, religion is not enough, art is not enough, politics and economics are not enough, nor is love, nor is duty, nor is action however disinterested, nor, however sublime, is contemplation. Nothing short of everything, will really do.
Aldous Huxley
Civilization is sterilization.
Aldous Huxley
Most of one's life is one prolonged effort to prevent oneself thinking.
Aldous Huxley
The proper study of mankind is books.
Aldous Huxley
Everyone thinks this way at some point. The important thing is to power through and get to learning. If you really don't have the time Let Me Handle Your Analytics.
Aldous Huxley
The more powerful and original a mind, the more it will incline towards the religion of solitude.
Aldous Huxley
All that happens means something nothing you do is ever insignificant.
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
By comparison with a night-club, churches are positively gay.
Aldous Huxley
