Quotaria - Aldous Huxley

An intellectual is a person who has discovered
something more interesting than sex.
- Aldous Huxley

Happiness is not achieved by the
conscious pursuit of happiness;
it is generally the by-product
of other activities.
- Aldous Huxley

When truth is nothing but the truth, it's unnatural, it's
an abstraction that resembles nothing in the real world.
In nature there are always so many other irrelevant things
mixed up with the essential truth.
- Aldous Huxley

At least two-thirds of our miseries spring
from human stupidity, human malice and those
great motivators and justifiers of malice and
stupidity: idealism, dogmatism and proselytizing
zeal on behalf of religous or political ideas.
- Aldous Huxley

"Maybe this world is
another planet's Hell."
- Aldous Huxley


There's only one corner of the universe you can be
certain of improving, and that's your own self.
- Aldous Huxley
