Famous quotes containing the words aldous huxley, huxley and/or aldous:
“What’s the greatest enemy of Christianity to-day? Frozen meat. In the past only members of the upper classes were thoroughly sceptical, despairing, negative. Why? Among other reasons, because they were the only people who could afford to eat too much meat. Now there’s cheap Canterbury lamb and Argentine chilled beef. Even the poor can afford to poison themselves into complete scepticism and despair.”
—Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)
“Feasts must be solemn and rare, or else they cease to be feasts.”
—Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)
“Bed is the poor man’s opera.”
—Italian proverb, quoted in Aldous Huxley, Heaven and Hell (1956)
