Famous quotes containing the word philosophy:
“A life-worshippers philosophy is comprehensive.... He is at one moment a positivist and at another a mystic: now haunted by the thought of death ... and now a Dionysian child of nature; now a pessimist and now, with a change of lover or liver or even the weather, an exuberant believer that Gods in his heaven and alls right with the world.”
—Aldous Huxley (18941963)
