Faith, it is evident, may be relied on to produce sustained action and, more rarely, sustained contemplation.
Aldous Huxley

Chastity - the most unnatural of all the sexual perversions.
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
We lie to ourselves in order that we may still have the excuse of ignorance, the alibi of stupidity and incomprehension, possessing which we can continue with a good conscience to commit and tolerate the most monstrous crimes.
Aldous Huxley
Image
I think that fiction and, as I say, history and biography are immensely important, not only for their own sake, because they provide a picture of life now and of life in the past, but also as vehicles for the expression of general philosophic ideas, religious ideas, social ideas.
Aldous Huxley
Image
Did you eat something that didn't agree with you? asked Bernard. The Savage nodded I ate civilization.
Aldous Huxley
Image
... one reads, above all, to prevent oneself thinking.
Aldous Huxley
Image
Most ignorance is vincible ignorance. We don't know because we don't want to know.
Aldous Huxley
Image
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

Don't try to behave as though you were essentially sane and naturally good. We're all demented sinners in the same cosmic boat - and the boat is perpetually sinking.
