Aldous Huxley
“We shall be permitted to live on this planet only for as long as we treat all nature with compassion and intelligence.”
Aldous Huxley, Island

Aldous Huxley
“The more powerful and original a mind, the more it will incline towards the religion of solitude.”
Aldous Huxley

Aldous Huxley
“Experience is not what happens to a man; it is what a man does with what happens to him.”
Aldous Huxley, Texts and Pretexts: An Anthology With Commentaries

Ernest Hemingway
“Most people were heartless about turtles because a turtle’s heart will beat for hours after it has been cut up and butchered. But the old man thought, I have such a heart too.”
Ernest Hemingway, The Old Man and the Sea

Aldous Huxley
“Given the nature of spiders, webs are inevitable. And given the nature of human beings, so are religions. Spiders can't help making fly-traps, and men can't help making symbols. That's what the human brain is there for - the turn the chaos of given experience into a set of manageable symbols.”
Aldous Huxley, Island
