“There are things known and there are things unknown, and in between are the doors of perception.”
Aldous Huxley
“The man who comes back through the Door in the Wall will never be quite the same as the man who went out. He will be wiser but less sure, happier but less self-satisfied, humbler in acknowledging his ignorance yet better equipped to understand the relationship of words to things, of systematic reasoning to the unfathomable mystery which it tries, forever vainly, to comprehend”
Aldous Huxley, The Doors of Perception
“Great is truth, but still greater, from a practical point of view, is silence about truth.”
Aldous Huxley, Brave New World
“Armaments, universal debt, and planned obsolescence—those are the three pillars of Western prosperity. If war, waste, and moneylenders were abolished, you’d collapse. And while you people are overconsuming the rest of the world sinks more and more deeply into chronic disaster.”
Aldous Huxley, Island
“Most human beings have an almost infinite capacity for taking things for granted.”
Aldous Huxley, Brave New World
“The propagandist’s purpose is to make one set of people forget that certain other sets of people are human.”
Aldous Huxley
“One believes things because one has been conditioned to believe them.”
Aldous Huxley, Brave New World
“…most men and women will grow up to love their servitude and will never dream of revolution.”
Aldous Huxley, Brave New World
“There is only one corner of the universe you can be certain of improving, and that’s your own self.”
Aldous Huxley
“That men do not learn very much from the lessons of history is the most important of all the lessons that history has to teach.”
Aldous Huxley, Collected Essays
“You shall know the truth and the truth shall make you mad.”
Aldous Huxley
“…most men and women will grow up to love their servitude and will never dream of revolution.”
The truth hurts.
Describes the sheeple perfectly.

“That’s why people are still talking about the economy, even though the bomb of the economy has gone off.
The financial crash has already occurred. That’s why people are still voting Republican or Democrat or are still reading newspapers.
So, people right now are in Pompey. The volcano is about to explode, and you really can’t have a discussion with the people around you.
Your best avenue is to realize the volcano is about to explode and try to escape the situation. So, as far as human kind is concerned, I think we are at the end of an age in a long cycle. . . . Anything that is parabolic is unsustainable.”
The last two quotes should be tattooed on every American’s forehead. They STILL would not get it.
