Additional quotes by Aldous Huxley

So long as it remains out of touch with the rest of the world, an ideal society can be a viable society.

One touches and, in the act of touching, one's touched.

Facts are ventriloquists' dummies. Sitting on a wise man's knee they may be made to utter words of wisdom; elsewhere, they say nothing, or talk nonsense, or indulge in sheer diabolism.

Thanks 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 Huxley
