The preparation for conception to me is one of the most important things, if we are we interested in the general progress of our species.
Laura Huxley
Image
The unequal distribution of food is one of the world's most tragic facts. Millions of people die because they have too little to eat, and many die because they have too much.
Laura Huxley

Service or giving is the other side of receiving. Giving and receiving is a full circle: a full circle feels more natural than a half circle.
Laura Huxley

Ignorance, according to the Buddha, is our basic difficulty. Psychedelics and the process of aging make that clear to me all the time.
Laura Huxley
Image
Beauty, well, it's one of the greatest, greatest gifts. I feel sorry sometimes because people are so worried and so involved in something that they don't have even five minutes to look at something beautiful.

The practice of yoga certainly is a fantastic practice. I only wish I would do it more. I find I can do it alone but it is much better if I have some guidance. Although I can do it alone it is a little bit sloppy. Ultimately, all of those techniques try to bring more oxygen to the brain. We can think and love better if we have more oxygen.
Laura Huxley
Image
I find beauty almost everywhere. Now more and more I find almost everything beautiful. That is why I have great difficulty in throwing away things because I think they are quite beautiful. Even the garbage, but I have to throw that away!

Love your heart. It really is to love yourself to begin with and help everybody else in doing the same. But the heart being the center.

Healthy attention is to improve what can be improved and to accept what we cannot improve.
Laura Huxley

You would think that as you get older you would be more disciplined. As I get older I get less disciplined. I just play around!
Laura Huxley
Image
Our emotions are ever-changing and infinitely varied, but the words with which we describe them are fixed and rigid. Our life is like quicksilver, our vocabulary like steel. Sometimes a consummate poet succeeds in rendering the quality of life in words. For the rest of us, this is not possible.
Laura Huxley
Image
The art of living is simply the art of using energy in an intelligent and creative way.
Laura Huxley
Image
Be a little kinder to each other.
Laura Huxley
Image
Morbid attention is when we focus only on the shortcomings that come with aging, which are inevitable, and think that everything that is wrong is a result of aging.
Laura Huxley
Image
I've done a little yoga, not as a professional, and every time I have a good teacher I see the immense possibilities and subtleties in this discipline. It's a little bit like music.
Laura Huxley
Image
I think that, at least in my experience, it is difficult when there is unfinished work. That makes it difficult to think of dying when what you have to do is not quite done. Of course it's never quite done.
Laura Huxley
Image
Since I was young my wish has been to die in perfect health - I mean to die with a body that is not destroyed by illness but a body that is consumed by its own long burning fire.
Laura Huxley
Image
Everything has to come through the senses, as though the soul is speaking out through the senses.
Laura Huxley

Power is just so much part of the human being because power is survival. But I wonder if that is the best way to survive, by killing someone else.
