Industrial manโa sentient reciprocating engine having a fluctuating output, coupled to an iron wheel revolving with uniform velocity. And then we wonder why this should be the golden age of revolution and mental derangement.
Aldous HuxleyWe live together, we act on, and react to, one another; but always and in all circumstances we are by ourselves. [...] By its very nature every embodied spirit is doomed to suffer and enjoy in solitude. Sensations, feelings, insights, fancies - all these are private and, except through symbols and at second hand, incommunicable.
Aldous HuxleyThanks to words, we have been able to rise above the brutes; and thanks to words, we have often sunk to the level of the demons.
Aldous HuxleyIf you have behaved badly, repent, make what amends you can and address yourself to the task of behaving better next time.
Aldous Huxley
