Huxley Winkworth
Son of Dame Daphne, Huxley is an unpleasant young lad, always out to get others into trouble, who while visiting Blandings in Galahad at Blandings, takes it into his head that the Empress is overweight and needs exercise. A single-minded youth, he persists in his quest diligently, until, when he finally finds himself alone with the pig, she bites him firmly on the finger.

Famous quotes containing the word huxley:
“At this very moment,... the most frightful horrors are taking place in every corner of the world. People are being crushed, slashed, disembowelled, mangled; their dead bodies rot and their eyes decay with the rest. Screams of pain and fear go pulsing through the air at the rate of eleven hundred feet per second. After travelling for three seconds they are perfectly inaudible. These are distressing facts; but do we enjoy life any the less because of them? Most certainly we do not.”
—Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)
