“The light of truth is never far away, and no human being is too negligible or corrupt to come into it.”
― Saul Bellow, Herzog

“The trouble with the world is, like a planet full of little brats, everyone's going around constantly pointing the finger at everyone else as being to blame. Almost none look within and at themselves, and commence again from there.
At each and every level of day-to-day life, and just beneath the surface all the while, particularly in so-called leadership, though it's rarely if ever expressed - the immaturity of our age is utterly staggering.”
― MuzWot

“Man cannot live by bread alone; but if he chooses to nourish his mind on the wrong kind of spiritual food, he won't even get bread. He won't even get bread, because he'll be so busy killing or preparing to kill his neighbours in the name of God, or Country, or Social Justice that he won't be able to cultivate his fields.”
― Aldous Huxley, After Many a Summer Dies the Swan

“The people who make wars, the people who kill and torture and tell lies in the name of their sacred causes, the really evil people in a word- these are never the publicans and the sinners. No, they're the virtuous, respectable men, who have the finest feelings, the best brains, the noblest ideals.”
― Aldous Huxley, After Many a Summer Dies the Swan
