Huxley

Famous quotes containing the word huxley:

“I am not afraid of the priests in the long-run. Scientific method is the white ant which will slowly but surely destroy their fortifications. And the importance of scientific method in modern practical life—always growing and increasing—is the guarantee for the gradual emancipation of the ignorant upper and lower classes, the former of whom especially are the strength of the priests.”
—Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–95)

“If Men and Women took their Pleasures as noisily as the Cats, what Londoner could ever hope to sleep of nights?”
—Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)

“An ideal is merely the projection, on an enormously enlarged scale, of some aspect of personality.”
—Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)
