QUOTES

The most shocking fact about war is that its victims and its instruments are individual human beings, and that these individual beings are condemned by the monstrous conventions of politics to murder or be murdered in quarrels not their own.

"Modern man no longer regards Nature as in any sense divine and feels perfectly free to behave toward her as an overweening conqueror and tyrant."

"Peace is a necessary condition of spirituality, no less than an inevitable result of it."

"Liberties are not given, they are taken."

Experience is not what happens to a man; it is what a man does with what happens to him.

I wanted to change the world. But I have found that the only thing one can be sure of changing is oneself.

"Let us be kinder to one another." -- Aldous Huxley, on his deathbed
