More quotes by Aldous Huxley

Image
Suddenly to realise that one is sitting, damned, among the other damned--it is a most disquieting experience so disquieting thatmost of us react to it by immediately plunging more deeply into our particular damnation in the hope, generally realized, that we may be able, at least for a time, to stifle our revolutionary knowledge.
Aldous Huxley
Image
A life-worshipper's philosophy is comprehensive. He is at one moment a positivist and at another a mystic: now haunted by the thought of death and now a Dionysian child of nature now a pessimist and now, with a change of lover or liver or even the weather, an exuberant believer that God's in his heaven and all's right with the world.
Aldous Huxley
Image
On no account brood over your wrongdoing. Rolling in the muck is not the best way of getting clean.
Aldous Huxley
Image
If humans were in fact the members of a truly social species, and if their individual differences were trifling and could be completely ironed out by appropriate conditioning, then, obviously, there would be no need for liberty and the State would be justified in persecuting the heretics who demanded it.
Aldous Huxley
Image
Ignore death up to the last moment then, when it can't be ignored any longer, have yourself squirted full of morphia and shuffle off in a coma. Thoroughly sensible, humane and scientific, eh?
Aldous Huxley
Image
In the world of ideas everything was clear in life all was obscure, embroiled.
Aldous Huxley

How difficult it is to sound persuasive at the top of one's voice!
Aldous Huxley
Image
Dedicated to all those who say: I don't have time for analytics or I don't understand analytics.
Aldous Huxley
Image
Happiness has got to be paid for. You're paying for it, Mr. Watson–paying because you happen to be too much interested in beauty. I was too much interested in truth I paid too.
Aldous Huxley
Image
A competent portraitist knows how to imply the profile in the full face.
Aldous Huxley
Image
Science has explained nothing the more we know the more fantastic the world becomes and the profounder the surrounding darkness.
Aldous Huxley
Image
Like every man of sense and good feeling, I abominate work.
Aldous Huxley

Let us be kinder to one another.
Aldous Huxley

Can you say something about nothing?
Aldous Huxley
Image
Consider the problem of over-population. Rapidly mounting human numbers are pressing ever more heavily on natural resources. What is to be done?... The annual increase of numbers should be reduced. But how? We are given two choices -- famine, pestilence and war on the one hand, birth control on the other. Most of us choose birth control.
Aldous Huxley
Image
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
Image
I want to know what passion is. I want to feel something strongly.
Aldous Huxley
Image
Everyone belongs to everyone else.

If you want to be a psychological novelist and write about human beings, the best thing you can do is keep a pair of cats.

For in spite of language, in spite of intelligence and intuition and sympathy, one can never really communicate anything to anybody.
