More quotes by Laura Huxley
the giver measures his gift with one yardstick, and the receiver measures it with another.
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.
Laura Huxley
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.
Laura Huxley
Everything has to come through the senses, as though the soul is speaking out through the senses.
Laura Huxley
Anybody can make a baby without any checking, without thinking. This type of parenting can be tragic because one of the greatest actions a human being can do is to create another life.
Laura Huxley
They don't consider nicotine as a drug. Why don't they put it together with all the other drugs?
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
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
I would much rather sit on the floor. Very rarely do I find a table and a chair that is comfortable. But the floor is comfortable.
Laura Huxley
You can focus your mind. You can respect your body. All of that is important.
Laura Huxley
There is danger in everything that we do.
Laura Huxley
The spine should be empty so that energy moves up and down. I always felt this way as a child.
Laura Huxley
Very often mothers go to work right away after the child is born and, unless the father or someone else stays home, this is quite serious. A baby has to be near its kin most of the time when he is little for three, four or five years. To give him this grounding, this feeling of connection, this feeling of relationship, is the most important thing.
Laura Huxley
The art of living is simply the art of using energy in an intelligent and creative way.
Laura Huxley
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
Sixty-eight percent of the pregnancies in the United States are neither prepared for nor expected. Of those sixty-eight percent, quite a bit end in abortion, but still there are a large number of children that come in this world without being expected.
Laura Huxley
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
I believe more in concrete spirituality rather than in a spirituality that is divided from the body and from nature.
Laura Huxley
Healthy attention is to improve what can be improved and to accept what we cannot improve.
Laura Huxley
What I say is focus your mind and respect your body. But mostly love your heart. I think that is where to begin, from there and then it goes out.
Laura Huxley
