Huxley

Famous quotes containing the word huxley:

    Uncontrolled, the hunger and thirst after God may become an obstacle, cutting off the soul from what it desires. If a man would travel far along the mystic road, he must learn to desire God intensely but in stillness, passively and yet with all his heart and mind and strength.
    —Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)

    Life is like walking along a crowded street—there always seem to be fewer obstacles to getting along on the opposite pavement—and yet, if one crosses over, matters are rarely mended.
    —Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–95)

    The only medicine for suffering, crime, and all the other woes of mankind, is wisdom.
    —Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–95)
