Words form the thread on which we string our experiences. [Therefore be careful how you interpret your life. Don't think or speak negatively lest your subconscious and others take you at your word and you are hung by your own tongue!]

More quotes by Aldous Huxley
Sleep is the most blessed and blessing of all natural graces.
Aldous Huxley
Liberties are not given, they are taken.
Aldous Huxley
Morality is always the product of terror its chains and strait-waistcoats are fashioned by those who dare not trust others, because they dare not trust themselves, to walk in liberty.
Aldous Huxley
There will be, in the next generation or so, a pharmacological method of making people love their servitude, and producing dictatorship without tears, so to speak, producing a kind of painless concentration camp for entire societies, so that people will in fact have their liberties taken away from them, but will rather enjoy it.
Aldous Huxley
The third petition of the Lord's Prayer is repeated daily by millions who have not the slightest intention of letting anyone's will be done but their own.
Aldous Huxley
Good is that which makes for unity. Evil is that which makes for separateness.
Aldous Huxley
Almost all of us long for peace and freedom but very few of us have much enthusiasm for the thoughts, feelings, and actions that make for peace and freedom.
Aldous Huxley
It's with bad sentiments that one makes good novels.
Aldous Huxley
Dedicated to all those who say: I don't have time for analytics or I don't understand analytics.
Aldous Huxley
A bad book is as much of a labor to write as a good one, it comes as sincerely from the author's soul.
Aldous Huxley
If you look up 'Intelligence' in the new volumes of the Encyclopeadia Britannica, you'll find it classified under the following three heads: Intelligence, Human Intelligence, Animal Intelligence, Military. My stepfather's a perfect specimen of Intelligence, Military.
Aldous Huxley
Half at least of all morality is negative and consists in keeping out of mischief. The lords prayer is less than 50 words long, and 6 of those words are devoted to asking god not to lead us into temptation.
Aldous Huxley
...most men and women will grow up to love their servitude and will never dream of revolution.
Aldous Huxley
Grace is always sufficient, provided we are ready to cooperate with it.
Aldous Huxley
But the quiet grows and grows. Beautifully and unbearably.
Aldous Huxley
Primroses and landscapes, he pointed out, have one grave defect: they are gratuitous. A love of nature keeps no factories busy. It was decided to abolish the love of nature, at any rate among the lower classes. . . . it was essential that they should keep on going to the country, even though they hated it.
Aldous Huxley
No man, however civilized, can listen for very long to African drumming, or Indian chanting, or Welsh hymn singing, and retain intact his critical and self-conscious personality.
Aldous Huxley
When life appears to be working against you, when your luck is down, when the supposedly wrong people show up, or when you slip up and return to old, self-defeating habits, recognize the signs that you're out of harmony with intention.
Aldous Huxley
But every one belongs to every one else
Aldous Huxley
Real progress is progress in charity, all other advances being secondary thereto.
Aldous Huxley
