Ape and Essence

Серия: "Vintage Classics"

In February 2108, the New Zealand Rediscovery Expedition reaches California at last. Although it is over a century since the world was devastated by nuclear war, the blight of radiation still gnaws away at the survivors. The expedition expects to find physical destruction, but they are quite unprepared for the moral degradation that confronts them.

Aldous Huxley

Animal
Para su perro, todo hombre es Napoleón.
Todos los hombres son dioses para su perro. Por eso hay tanta gente que ama a sus perros más que a los hombres.
Ciencia
Si poca ciencia es peligrosa, ¿dónde está el hombre que tenga la suficiente para estar fuera de peligro?
Crítica
Es delicioso dar con alguien que acepte las pequeñas ironías como expresiones de la mayor seriedad.
Experiencia
La experiencia no es lo que te sucede, sino lo que haces con lo que te sucede.
Libros
Escribir un mal libro representa tanto trabajo como escribir uno bueno. Nace, con igual sinceridad, del alma del autor.
Moral
La cualidad de la conducta moral varía en razón inversa al número de seres humanos involucrados.
Política
Cuanto más siniestros son los designios de un político, más estentórea se hace la nobleza de su lenguaje.
Saber
Saber es relativamente fácil. Querer y obrar de acuerdo a lo que uno quisiera es siempre más duro.
Salud
La investigación de las enfermedades ha avanzado tanto que cada vez es más difícil encontrar a alguien que esté completamente sano.
Silencio
Los silencios no prestan testimonio contra sí mismos.
Sociedad
El burgués representa el perfecto animal humano domesticado.
Los vecinos que uno nunca ve de cerca son los vecinos ideales y perfectos.
