Henry Huxley

Famous quotes containing the words henry and/or huxley:

    Proclaim human equality as loudly as you like, Witless will serve his brother.
    —Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–95)

    Experience is not a matter of having actually swum the Hellespont, or danced with the dervishes, or slept in a doss-house. It is a matter of sensibility and intuition, of seeing and hearing the significant things, of paying attention at the right moments, of understanding and co-ordinating. Experience is not what happens to a man; it is what a man does with what happens to him.
    —Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)
