 ...........................with Aldous Huxley:

After silence that which comes nearest to expressing the inexpressible is music.

The propagandist's purpose is to make one set of people forget that certain other sets of people are human.

 Man is impelled to invent theories to account for what happens in the world. Unfortunately, he is not quite intelligent enough, in most cases, to find correct explanations.

Too much consistency is as bad for the mind as it is for the body. Consistency is contrary to nature, contrary to life. The only completely consistent people are the dead. 

Anarchism seems to me more likely to lead to desirable social change than highly centralized, dictatorial Communism.

Happiness is not achieved by the conscious pursuit of happiness; it is generally the by-product of other activities.

At least two thirds of our miseries spring from human stupidity, human malice, and those great motivators and justifiers of malice and stupidity, idealism, dogmatism and proselytizing zeal on behalf of religious or political idols.

That all men are equal is a proposition which at ordinary times no sane individual has ever given his assent.

Habit converts luxurious enjoyments into dull and daily necessities.

Most human beings have an almost infinite capacity for taking things for granted.
